Future usage of VB ontologiesFuture usage of VB ontologies

TGMA and TADS: To provide basis for cross-products (e.g. descriptions of phenotypes).

MIRO: Expansion into agricultural domain.

IDOMAL: Driving of PopGen and extended PopGen (VB), template for new Vector Borne Disease ontologies, gene annotation.
