animal trait ontology for livestock (ATOL)

Definition

The multi-species Animal Trait Ontology for Livestock (ATOL) has been designed as a reference source for indexing phenotype databases and scientific papers. It covers five major topics related to animal productions: growth and meat quality, animal nutrition, milk production, reproduction and welfare. It is composed of species-independent concepts subsuming species-specific ones so that cross-species and species-specific reasoning can be performed consistently.
