Figure 2

An OBO-Edit ‘Ontology Tree Editor’ view demonstrating the improved Gene Ontology representing ‘kidney development’ after a focused expansion.

The Gene Ontology representing kidney development was enriched after a focused expansion with an additional 522 new terms, and as an example (using the Gene Ontology file from March 19th 2012) the expanded node of the ‘pronephros development’ term shows it’s immediate child terms. The [+] icon beside each term denotes that there are further child terms that can be viewed; the [−] icon denotes no further child terms; (P) denotes a part_of relationship; (I) denotes an is_a relationship; (R) denotes a regulates relationship.
