With the DataPLANT biology ontology (DPBO), DataPLANT provides an intermediate ontology that acts as a broker and bridge between the individual researcher/domain experts and main ontology providers.
You can visualize the class tree of the DPBO and browse for terms at the TIB terminology service with the following link: https://terminology.tib.eu/ts/ontologies/dpbo/terms .
DPBO enables easy and agile collection of missing vocabulary as well as relationships between terms for (meta)data annotation using DataPLANT’s Swate tool.
[!Note] DPBO formerly had the namespace NFDI4PSO, which is now obsolete. Old NFDI4PSO terms correspond to the DPBO term with the same accession number. For example, NFDI4PSO:0000011 (obsolete) corresponds to the term DPBO:0000011.
We welcome every contribution! If a specific term, relationship or an existing external ontology needed for annotating your data with Swate is missing from the DataPLANT database, you can open an issue. We provide a variety of issue templates depending on your wishes:
