Third beta release of Phenoscape Knowledgebase 2.0

Phenoscape Knowledgebase 2.0 beta release 3 is now available at http://kb.phenoscape.org/. This version includes an enhanced publication info interface [example] which displays the original character matrix, as well as a list of taxa including the taxonomic names and museum specimens used in the dataset. Other recent developments in the KB are global term info popups and hierarchical browsing of ontology terms on their info pages [example].

We have also improved our software and data release processes so that the public Knowledgebase can easily keep up with new developments and the latest data updates from our curators. Looking forward, the next major feature to be added to the Knowledgebase is a faceted browsing interface which is currently under development. This interface should help provide an overview of how the data are organized within the various ontologies used in the Knowledgebase.
