Merging grouping terms #137

Closed katiermullen closed 9 months ago

katiermullen commented 9 months ago

The following terms will be merged with breed term:

Example, Alpaca (Alpaca)' is merged with 'Alpaca breed' defined as "Vertebrate breed of the taxon Vicugna pacos."

This is based on feedback in issue #135 from @LeroyGregoire that: "from the DAD-IS logic, transboundary breeds and species are just categorical fields." In cases where the species is used to represent the breed, these terms represent the same concept as the "breed" grouping terms. Since they represent the same concept, they will be merged.

Added terms recommended above by @sabrinatoro. Thank you! Terms that "need more thoughts" have not been merged.
