Hi Working with the MageTab export I have noticed that it would be great to have additional properties for experiments that could hold MGED Ontology annotations, e.g. Experiment Design, Replicate Type, Quality Control Type. Up to now we've been using the Experiment Design and Experiment Type fields of experiments to hold this information, but it is a bit counterintuitive and does not restrict to available MO terms.
In order to attach a fixed vocabulary term to an experiment it is probably easiest to make experiments annotatable and create one annotation type with selection of terms for every property. Further, the MO annotation types could be present in BASE by default (like the default protocol types), together with selections of MO terms. What do you think? Best wishes, Pawel PS The new MageTab plugin is already working in our BASE installation, and we are currently testing it with on a few experiments. I am planning to add support for pooling, and then it should be ready to release. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The demand for IT networking professionals continues to grow, and the demand for specialized networking skills is growing even more rapidly.
