Yes, I agree with the need to relabel the ext term. Thanks.
General class looks justified. Both are clusters of cells that have the potential to become committed to a neuroblast fate. Looks like major differentium is the tissue in which this occurs - although I think both could be referred to as neurectoderm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroectoderm)
We get a same-label-clash when trying to build uberon using the insect module. This comes from there being two classes called 'proneural cluster', one in the phenoscape-ext vertebrate extension module, the other in the insect module:
See the notes: this is an example of a class that was 'blindly abstracted' from ZFA. It lacks a text definition (because it was 'inherited' from TAO, which was made from an old ZFA), but we can see the intent from the current ZFA def:
def: "Cluster of cells in the neural plate that have the potential to become neuroblast." [ZFIN:ZDB-PUB-990921-1]
compare with the uberon-insect term:
similarly blindly abstracted from FBbt (as it was a descendant of a GO-referenced class)
There are obvious similarities in these terms, and there is an argument for having some kind of abstraction. But for now, they are two classes and the label clash is blocking the release. I will therefore relabel the vertebrate one for now to be 'neural plate proneural cluster'
