Expand description
HpoTerm
s are the main building block of the Ontology.
Each term is a descendent (child) of at least one other term
(except for the root term HP:0000001 | All
). The relationship
is modeled bi-drectionally in hpo
, so that every term also has
one or several children
(except for all leaf terms).
At the same time, terms are associated with diseases by describing a part of their phenotypical representation. They are also associated with genes when the gene is relevant for the phenotype or associated disease. The association to genes and diseases are inversely “inherited” to a term’s parent terms (and subsequently their parents as well).
Each term is identified by a unique HpoTermId
.
