Details

The ppo_terms function returns terms from the Plant Phenology Ontology (PPO). The function only accepts parameters for "present" or "absent" terms. The response populates a data frame with: termID, label, description, and URI. Use the termID values in submitting termID values to the ppo_data function. The label and description fields are extracted from the Plant Phenology Ontology and are useful in determining the proper term to query on. The URI field contains a link to the term itself which is useful for determining superclass and subclass relationships for each term. Some of these terms will not return any results when using ppo_data. To have only the ones that will return results, use ppo_get_terms or check rppo:::ppo_filters$mapped_traits which contains both present and absent terms. For more information on the PPO ontology itself, we suggest loading the PPO https://github.com/PlantPhenoOntology/ppo with protege https://protege.stanford.edu/
