ABO broader/narrower synonyms
This is a list of NBO terms for which @aclark-binghamton-edu and @swmargulis have identified synonyms in ABO, however the synonyms are likely either broader or narrower than the NBO terms. These ABO terms might simply added as synonyms with the appropriate scope or possibly as new terms inserted into the NBO hierarchy.
I am posting this list as a request for comment on what to do with these specific ABO terms.
There are other ABO terms that we do want to add to NBO as new terms. I will assemble a list of those terms in separate issues (one for leaf terms and one for terms to be inserted) and then generate pull requests for these changes.
NBO Term | ABO Term | scope (ABO term relative to NBO term) |
---|---|---|
feeding behavior | nutrient acquisition | broader (or exact?) |
fossorial locomotion behavior | burrow | narrower (or exact?) |
maternal grooming | hygiene | broader |
consumption behavior | ingest | broader |
sexual display behavior | mate attraction behavior | narrower (or exact?) |
nest building behavior | nest-egg sac creation | broader |
mouth movement | other moved mouth parts/mouth part movement | broader |
sexual activity | sexual actions | broader (but process/event, not functional) |
communication behavior | signal exchange | narrower (or exact?) |
submissive behavior | submission | narrower (or exact?) |
aquatic locomotion | swim | narrower |
brooding behavior | thermoregulation (or thermoregulation of offspring) | broader |
