e-infrastructure Roadmap for Open Science in Agriculture

A bibliometric study

The e-ROSA project seeks to build a shared vision of a future sustainable e-infrastructure for research and education in agriculture in order to promote Open Science in this field and as such contribute to addressing related societal challenges. In order to achieve this goal, e-ROSA’s first objective is to bring together the relevant scientific communities and stakeholders and engage them in the process of coelaboration of an ambitious, practical roadmap that provides the basis for the design and implementation of such an e-infrastructure in the years to come.

This website highlights the results of a bibliometric analysis conducted at a global scale in order to identify key scientists and associated research performing organisations (e.g. public research institutes, universities, Research & Development departments of private companies) that work in the field of agricultural data sources and services.

Title

Building and Querying Microbial Ontology

en
Abstract

The microbial taxonomy is based on the characteristics of microorganisms that can be objectively observed and measured. There are many scheme of microbial classification, but the latest is the three domain system and is the most accepted. Ontologies are the new form of knowledge representation that acts in synergy with agents and Semantic Web Architecture. Ontologies define domain concepts and the relationships between them, and thus provide a domain language that is meaningful to both humans and machines. The relationships in Ontology are explicitly named and developed with specification of rules and constraints so that they reflect the context of domain for which the knowledge is modelled. Ontologies can be built by using various GUI based software tools, known as Ontology editors. Among all editors Protege is widely supported by a huge research community. For effective use of Ontology, protege provides a query interface known as SPARQL query panel. SPARQL is a syntactically-SQL-like language for querying RDF graphs. Microbial Taxonomy Ontology is developed for the three domain system of microbes for the domain Bacteria which will be helpful for the study of Agriculturally Important Microbes (Bacteria). This ontology is built in the Protege OWL editor from Domain to Genus level. Using this ontology, a query interface can be developed that will help detailed study of microbial taxonomy, classification of microbes as well as exchange knowledge between software agents and systems.
