NTR recent feeding and pre feeding #11

Open cerivs opened 7 years ago

recent feeding: Diet condition in which the fish has been fed recently, part of a normal feeding schedule.
Syn: full fish pre-feeding: Diet condition in which the fish has not been fed recently, part of a normal feeding schedule. Syn: hungry fish

These are to be used for looking at gene expression under normal feeding routines and food content where the experiment involves measuring gene expression just before or just after feeding.

I would make these terms either children of diet or food availability.

We could make a new branch, a sister term to diet with the name feeding.
Feeding would refer to the schedule of food availability while diet would refer to the content of the food Food availability would become a child of feeding.
