The other organism string

There was a consensus to replace the phrases "by organism" and "other organism" with the specific words "symbiont" and "host" where appropriate. Another excellent point raised had to do with the fact that, not all users will immediately know that the word symbiont is used by PAMGO to refer to mutualists, pathogens and commensalists. Resolutions in item 1 and 2.


Action Item 1 Most of these changes have been made by Jane already. If you come across any that still needs modification, please add to the below....preferably GO ID and term.

Action Item 2 Add narrow synonyms to all terms where the symbiont is the acting organism Example: "Acquisition of nutrients by symbiont" will have the following narrow synonyms 

         "acquisition of nutrients by pathogen..................."
         "acquisition of nutrients by mutualist..................."
         "acquisition of nutrients by commensalist..................."

Also include in COMMENT field that when the symbiont is the acting organism, genes annotated to the term can be from pathogens, mutualists or commensalists.
