missing genus hybrid indicator #211

Closed mfrasca closed 8 years ago

mfrasca commented 8 years ago

Brassocattleya and Dracuvallia should really have a »×« preceding the epithet. one more issue that would be solved if we represented family/genus/species as taxon.

ITF2 Intergeneric Hybrid Flag?? Yes please!

(I get a little concerned that your desire to "flatten" the data structure with "taxon" for family/genus/species is a fairly significant break from any off the botanic record systems I have seen over the years, but, as long as it is easy enough to get the data out in a ITF2/ABCD/etc. compatible format, e.g. for PlantSearch updates, I guess its no big deal?)

currently Genus.hybrid_marker, the genus hybrid indicator, is computed from Genus.genus:

if Genus.genus starts with x or ×, then it's × if Genus.genus starts with +, then it's + if Genus.genus contains a × then it's H (after the above checks)

correspondingly, Genus.epithet is computed removing any leading x, ×, +.

these fields are available in reports, not in queries. you can search for hybrid marker using the like construct: genus where genus.genus like '×%'

BIG FAT BUT the data we use to initialize the database does not contain that leading × nor +. if you do put a leading × or +, then you need to use it when matching the genus epithet. the pull down completion logic does not consider the leading × as an optional character.
