Plant Ontology Download

Beginning with Version #14 (January 2011), the Plant Ontology has been merged from two separate files (po_anatomy and po_temporal) into a single file called 'plant_ontology'. We recommend that all users switch to the single, merged file.

The below files are for version #21 from October 2015. For the current release please see https://github.com/Planteome/plant-ontology.

If you need current versions of the po_anatomy.obo and po_temporal.obo files, please contact us.
