The A_nidulans_phenotype_data.tab file contains the phenotype data for all the features in AspGD. The format is a tab-delimited table with the following columns: 1) Feature Name (Mandatory) -The feature name of the gene 2) Feature Type (Mandatory) -The feature type of the gene 3) Gene Name (Optional) -The standard name of the gene 4) AspGDID (Mandatory) -The AspGDID of the gene 5) Reference (AspGD_REF Required, -PMID: ####|AspGD_REF: #### (separated by pipe)(one reference per row) PMID optional) 6) Experiment Type (Mandatory) -The method used to detect and analyze the phenotype 7) Mutant Type (Mandatory) -Description of the impact of the mutation on activity of the gene product 8) Allele (Optional) -Allele name and description, if applicable 9) Strain background (optional) -Genetic background in which the phenotype was analyzed 10) Phenotype (Mandatory) -The feature observed and the direction of change relative to wild type 11) Chemical (Optional) -Any chemicals relevant to the phenotype 12) Condition (Optional) -Condition under which the phenotype was observed 13) Details (Optional) -Details about the phenotype 14) Reporter (Optional) -The protein(s) or RNA(s) used in an experiment to track a process 15) Anatomical Structure (Optional) -The Fungal Anatomy Ontology term that denotes the affected structure for an anatomical phenotype 16) Virulence Model (Optional) -The model system used to assess the virulence of a mutant The content of the file is updated weekly. For further details about how phenotype information is recorded, please see: http://www.aspgd.org/help/PhenoHelp.shtml Please note that on February 24, 2010, the format of this file was changed slightly so that it would be consistent with the mutant phenotype data files available from the Candida and Saccharomyces Genome Databases. The format of files generated prior to February 24, 2010 was: 1) Feature Name (Mandatory) -The feature name of the gene 2) Feature Type (Mandatory) -The feature type of the gene 3) Gene Name (Optional) -The standard name of the gene 4) AspGDID (Mandatory) -The AspGDID of the gene 5) Reference (AspGD_REF Required, PMID optional) -PMID: ####|AspGD_REF: #### (separated by pipe)(one reference per row) 6) Experiment Type (Mandatory) -The method used to detect and analyze the phenotype 7) Mutant Type (Mandatory) -Description of the impact of the mutation on activity of the gene product 8) Allele (Optional) -Allele name and description, if applicable 9) Phenotype (Mandatory) -The feature observed and the direction of change relative to wild type 10) Chemical (Optional) -Any chemicals relevant to the phenotype 11) Anatomical Structure (Optional) -The Fungal Anatomy Ontology term that denotes the affected structure for an anatomical phenotype 12) Condition (Optional) -Condition under which the phenotype was observed 13) Details (Optional) -Details about the phenotype 14) Reporter (Optional) -The protein(s) or RNA(s) used in an experiment to track a process 15) Virulence Model (Optional) -The model system used to assess the virulence of a mutant
