Tolerance
Trudy needs some terms for annotating tolerance in bacteria e.g. tolerance to ethanol. We'd agreed that 'development' or 'acquisition' of tolerance terms would be okay - or could tolerance itself be a process, in the same way that we have homeostasis as a process?
In addition, we already have tolerance terms for plants - e.g. acquisition of desiccation tolerance - would we want to group these with the bacterial terms or are the processes too disparate?
