See http://obofoundry.org/ro#part_of

In GO (and in RO), A part_of B means that every A is part_of some B.

For example: nucleus part_of cell

Contrast with has_part

Annotation Examples:

Specifying the developmental stage at which a process occurs

We can use a developmental stage ontology and the part_of relation. part_of is used because both the process/function and the developmental stages are things with temporal parts (they are occurrents in bfo-speak).

For example, apoptosis during Segmentation:1-4 somites in zebrafish
