phenotype

METPO:1000059 · CLASS · REVIEWED

A quality that differentiates specific instances of a species from other instances of the same species.

Phenotype quality and child-trait context

DOI-backed upper-ontology context graph linking phenotype to its quality parent and to non-environmental, non-genomic TraitMech child groupings.

phenotype is a quality rdfs:subClassOf
Phenotypes are modeled as qualities or quality-bearing descriptions of entities.
- DOI:10.1186/gb-2010-11-1-r2 ontology of qualities termed Phenotype and Trait ontology Supports phenotype representation through PATO quality classes.
morphology child traits specializes phenotype rdfs:subClassOf
Morphology classes are non-environmental child phenotypes in TraitMech.
- DOI:10.1186/gb-2010-11-1-r2 size, color, shape, structure Supports morphology-like qualities as phenotype descriptors.
trophic type specializes phenotype rdfs:subClassOf
Trophic type is retained as a non-environmental physiology child under phenotype.
- DOI:10.1186/gb-2010-11-1-r2 logical definitions and associated ontologies Supports phenotype classes as organized through ontology-backed definitions and parent-child placement.
pathogenic to host specializes phenotype rdfs:subClassOf
Pathogenic-to-host is retained as a non-environmental ecology child under phenotype.
- DOI:10.1186/gb-2010-11-1-r2 phenotype ontologies across multiple species Supports phenotype hierarchies spanning different biological domains.
