This ontology is for two types of terms:

  • Arachnid behavior terms that are not available in other ontologies such as NBO or GO. These terms might be moved to NBO or a more focussed taxonomic ontology, such as SPD, in the future.
  • Terms such as narrative, behavior phenotype, etc. that are specific to Arachb's modelling.

This ontology will be available for download in the future.

Although this ontology will never be part of the OBO library, the intent is to be as compliant as possible with the OBO Foundry Principles. "Project ontologies are not bad domain ontologies." - Nicolas Matentzoglu
