TOP and T-Sita, as well as some other physiological Ontologies could be tapped as source for looking up and matching trait names to definitions and get URIs as traitID.

The package that seems to allow access to Ontologies from R is ontoCAT.

I'm not experienced enough with API usage. Maybe someone wants to invest time in this for a later version.
