These concepts can be used at multiple biological scales and in a diversity of taxa, including plants, animals and fungi. The BSPO is used to provide a source of anatomical location descriptors for logically defining anatomical entity classes in anatomy ontologies. download_json: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/bspo.json download_obo: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/obophenotype/biological-spatial-ontology/master/bspo.obo download_owl: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/bspo.owl example: 0000029 homepage: https://github.com/obophenotype/biological-spatial-ontology keywords: - anatomy - life science - obo - ontology license: CC-BY-3.0 mappings: aberowl: BSPO biocontext: BSPO bioportal: BSPO fairsharing: FAIRsharing.newa3z obofoundry: bspo ols: bspo ontobee: BSPO name: Biological Spatial Ontology pattern: ^\d{7}$ preferred_prefix: BSPO prefix: bspo providers: [] publications: - doi: 10.1186/2041-1480-5-34 pmc: PMC4137724 pubmed: '25140222' title: 'Nose to tail, roots to shoots: spatial descriptors for phenotypic diversity in the Biological Spatial Ontology' year: 2014 rdf_uri_format: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/BSPO_$1 repository: https://github.com/obophenotype/biological-spatial-ontology synonyms: [] uri_format: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/BSPO_$1 version: '2023-05-27'
