The Plant Ontology (PO; http://www.plantontology.org/) is a publicly available, collaborative effort to develop and maintain controlled, structured vocabulary ('ontology') of terms describe plant anatomy, morphology the stages development. goals PO are link (annotate) gene expression phenotype data structures development, using model adopted by Gene Ontology. From its original design covering only rice, maize Arabidopsis, scope has been expanded include all green plants. was first...

The Crop Ontology (CO) of the Generation Challenge Program (GCP) (http://cropontology.org/) is developed for Integrated Breeding Platform (IBP) (http://www.integratedbreeding.net/) by several centers Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR): bioversity, CIMMYT, CIP, ICRISAT, IITA, and IRRI. breeding necessitates that breeders access genotypic phenotypic data related to a given trait. CO provides validated trait names used crop communities practice (CoP) harmonizing...

Abstract Fusarium ear rot (FER) incited by verticillioides is a major disease of maize that reduces grain quality globally. Host resistance the most suitable strategy for managing disease. We report results genome-wide association study (GWAS) to detect alleles associated with increased FER in set 818 tropical inbred lines evaluated three environments. Association tests performed using 43,424 single-nucleotide polymorphic (SNPs) markers identified 45 SNPs and 15 haplotypes were significantly...

Heterogeneous and multidisciplinary data generated by research on sustainable global agriculture agrifood systems requires quality labeling or annotation in order to be interoperable. As recommended the FAIR principles, data, labels, metadata must use controlled vocabularies ontologies that are popular knowledge domain commonly used community. Despite existence of robust Life Sciences, there is currently no comprehensive full set for across agricultural disciplines. In this paper, we discuss...

Agricultural crop databases maintained in gene banks of the Consultative Group on International Research (CGIAR) are valuable sources information for breeders. These provide comparative phenotypic and genotypic that can help elucidate functional aspects plant agricultural biology. To facilitate data sharing within between these retrieval information, ontology (CO) database was designed to controlled vocabulary sets several economically important species.Existing public ontologies equivalent...

Ontology engineering and knowledge modeling for the plant sciences is expected to contribute understanding of basis traits that determine phenotypic expression in a given environment. Several crop- or clade-specific trait ontologies have been developed describe important agriculture order address major scientific challenges such as food security. We present three successful species and/or which needs crop scientists quickly access wide range related data, but their scope limits...

Wheat is the most important staple crop in Afghanistan and accounts for main part of cereal production. However, wheat production has been unstable during last decades country depends on seed imports. research emphasized releases new, high-yielding disease resistant varieties but rates adoption improved are uncertain. We applied DNA fingerprinting to assess grown farmers' fields four Afghan provinces.Of 560 samples collected from 2015-16 cropping season, 74% were identified as released after...

Bacterial strains were isolated from diseased samples of shoot blight collected different pear growing orchards Chuncheon, Korea 1995 to 1998. Forty-nine showed their pathogenicity on immature fruit and pear. Microbiological, physiological, biochemical tests performed these pathogenic strains. One strain, designated as WT3 in this study, was selected a representative strain it the first outbreak area Jichonri, Chuncheon 1995. Further detailed characterization done by PCR amplification using...
