The VEuPathDB ontology is an application ontology developed to encode our understanding of what data is about in the public resources developed and maintained by the Eukaryotic Pathogen, Host and Vector Genomics Resource (VEuPathDB; https://veupathdb.org). The VEuPathDB ontology was previously named the EuPathDB ontology prior to EuPathDB joining with VectorBase.The ontology was built based on the Ontology of Biomedical Investigations (OBI) with integration of other OBO ontologies such as PATO, OGMS, DO, etc. as needed for coverage. Currently the VEuPath ontology is primarily intended to be used for support of the VEuPathDB sites. Terms with VEuPathDB ontology IDs that are not specific to VEuPathDB will be submitted to OBO Foundry ontologies for subsequent import and replacement of those terms when they are available.

Local identifiers in VEuPathDB ontology should match this
regular expression:
^\d{7}$
Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from VEuPathDB ontology should match
this regular expression:
^eupath:\d{7}$

Providers are various services that resolve CURIEs to URLs. The example CURIE
eupath:0010316
is used to demonstrate the provides available for
eupath
. Generation of OLS and BioPortal URLs requires additional programmatic
logic beyond string formatting.
