[tdwg-lit] plos one taxonomic publication
by Donat Agosti 29 May '08

29 May '08

Below some comments to a press release from PLOS-one regarding yesterday's online publication of new ant species (http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0001787) complemented by semantically enhanced XML versions. This means, that the taxonomic domain specific XML mark up schema (TaxonX) has been used to mark up the content of the publication. Enhanced in the context that elements such as taxonomic names or materials citations have been amended with additional information. For names, that means LSIDs from either Zoobank and or the Hymenoptera Name Server have been added, for materials citation, if available, each record has been amended with a collection code form the supporting information available through the publication, and if available with the BenBank accession number, when the specimen has been used for barcoding. This file is in appendix S2. A further file, including an experimental mark up containing PLoS One schema complemented with Taxonx is available here (http://hdl.handle.net/10199/15447 : see pone.0001787_enhanced.xml). The value of this step is, that the XML can be read by machine and imported into other projects. Our implementation on plazi.org is here http://plazi.org:8080/GgSRS/search?214588052.ModsDocID=21401 <http://plazi.org:8080/GgSRS/search?214588052.ModsDocID=21401&indexId=0&subI n> &indexId=0&subIn . The content of this publication has been imported into SRS on plazi, where it resides on a dedicated database that allows exporting it in various versions. In the above link, an html version of each of the treatments is available, that includes links to the Name Servers (HNS, Zoobank), the specimens (CAS in this case, which provides for each specimen a dedicated Webpage), parts of specimens that has been used for DNA analysis, allowing to monitor the whereabout of material used for genetic analysis (in this case linked to CAS), plus the GenBank reocord (GB) Plazi can be harvested using for example a dedicated TAPIR service. Once GBIF harvests this particular data, it will be available on their database as well (http://data.gbif.org/datasets/provider/241 ) from where hopefully soon links will be set up to get back to the original record. Availability of the names: Deposition of CD-Rom and printed material In accordance with section 8.6 of the ICZN's International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, printed copies, and a pdf version of the article have been sent to be deposited at the following six publicly accessible libraries: Natural History Museum, London, UK; American Museum of Natural History, New York, USA; Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, Washington DC, USA; Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris, France; Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia; Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan. Furthermore, which is not relevant for Art. 8.6, but an option to be considered for the purpose of providing a permanent scientific record (Art. 8(a.1) a digital copy has been deposited at the Public Archive at PubMed Central. Additionally, XML versions of the publication are also available at plazi.org (http://hdl.handle.net/10199/15447). The value of this experimental publication is, that the content, especially descriptions, are immediately open access and, could potentially harvested by machines, like Zoobank, that would automatically add the original descriptions. A similar publication has been posted on Zootaxa (http://www.mapress.com/zootaxa/2008/f/zt01671p031.pdf and http://plazi.org:8080/dspace/handle/10199/15417 . There are many issues involved in implementing such systems, not least sustainable business models. But it seems to be the only way forward so that this information is shared and distributed the widest possible. Adoption of XML based production workflow will become most efficient, if we begin to used editing tools to create our publications from begin with as XML (or similar kind of) documents. The mark up has been a collaboration between PloS-One and Plazi. Any comments are welcome, especially on the publications Web Site at PloS-one to improvie this process (http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0001787) . Donat Press release: * * * * * * * * * * * * Scientists Present a Collaborative Model for Accelerating Taxonomy A case study involving 1,700 ant specimens from Madagascar demonstrates how a combination of DNA barcoding, traditional morphology, and Web-based tools can help scientists quickly and accurately process large groups of specimens and make the results immediately available so that other researchers can readily incorporate the results into their work. SAN FRANCISCO (May 28, 2008) - Two hundred and fifty years after the publication of Linnaeus' Systema Naturae, which represents the official start of modern zoological nomenclature, an article published this week in PLoS ONE provides a glimpse of what the future of taxonomy could be in this brave new world of affordable DNA sequencing and the Internet. In the article, entomologist Brian Fisher of the California Academy of Sciences and M. Alex Smith of the University of Guelph, Richard Pyle from Zoobank, and Terry Catapano and Donat Agosti from Swiss-based Plazi present a collaborative approach to taxonomy in which collectors, morphologists, and DNA barcoders combine forces to accelerate the process of species identification and description. Their publication is openly accessible on the World Wide Web and offers not only the descriptions but also the primary specimen and genetic data upon which they are based. Such accelerated and openly accessible work is necessary to keep pace with climate change and other human-induced threats to biodiversity, which may eradicate species from the Earth before they are even recognized as rare or valuable. Insects contribute enormously to the biodiversity of most habitats, but often they are too numerous and too time-consuming to identify using only morphology-based methods. In the PLoS ONE article, Fisher and Smith were faced with the gargantuan task of identifying 1,700 ant specimens collected in Madagascar from 1992 through 2006. To tackle the problem with speed and efficiency, they employed DNA barcoding-in which they sequenced 600 base pairs of the cytochrome c oxidase 1 (CO1) gene-on a representative sample of 501 specimens, and measured the morphological characters of 209 specimens. With this combined data set, they were able to group the ants into five species of Anochetus (three of which are new species) and three species of Odontomachus. While the morphological data was useful in determining the species boundaries between specimens, the results from DNA barcoding-fast, inexpensive, and relatively easy to produce-were what allowed the authors to identify the specimens at a useful scale and speed, especially when members of the same species showed wildly different morphologies. This collaborative approach, anchored by DNA barcoding, will allow scientists to make more timely recommendations to conservation policymakers, the authors argue. For example, the ant data was used as part of a multi-taxon analysis of biodiversity in Madagascar that allowed Fisher and his colleagues to recommend future conservation areas on the island, well before a 2008 deadline set by the Malagasy government. The publishing model set forth in the PLoS ONE article also leverages the digital age-the traditional descriptive text is complemented with links to the underlying data, such as the gene sequences at GenBank, descriptions and images of specimens at AntWeb (www.antweb.org), and naming information at Zoobank, the registry of animal names. Furthermore, the authors have allowed open access to the publication, and offer enhanced machine- (XML-based) and human-readable versions on Plazi, a taxonomy website (http://plazi.org <http://plazi.org/> ). Plazi provides tools to convert and enhance existing publications and provides standardized, searchable access to taxonomic literature. It is already used by data harvesters like the Global Biodiversity Facility (http://gbif.org <http://gbif.org/> ) to enhance their 150 million specimen records.

[Biogeosdi] itinerary tool geospatial data analysis
by bmeganck 20 May '08

20 May '08

Dear all, RMCA is happy to announce an updated website dedicated to our "itinerary tool" for geospatial data analysis (expedition pathway reconstruction), with extensive documentation and demo, at : http://synthesys.africamuseum.be/itin/ The Tool will collaborate with the EDIT Geoportal and TDWG and GBIF services. The next big step will be requesting GBIF occurrence data and displaying it on the map to support/complement the uploaded data. As you will see from the documentation and the source code, the tool uses a very modular structure, with ideas developed within TDWG and GBIF collaborations, for which we are very grateful to you all. Coming up are some more texts on "spin-off", comprising a phylogeographic module (taking in a treefile, and producing a KML output), GBIF connection and links to the OpenstreetMap initiative. Any questions and/or comments are appreciated ! best regards, Bart. ########################################### This message has been scanned by ICT - Africa Museum ________________________________________ 20/5/2008 - Filtered through antispam by ICT

[tdwg-tnc] ontological representation of taxonomies and phylogenies
by Hilmar Lapp 15 May '08

15 May '08

(apologies if you receive this multiple times - we are trying to reach as many interested researchers from the taxonomic/systematic community as possible) Under the umbrella of the Open Biomedical Ontologies project (OBO; http://obofoundry.org/) we have created a new mailing list, called obo-taxonomy, for the discussion of ontological representation of taxonomies and phylogenies. The OBO Foundry supports the development of orthogonal, interoperable reference ontologies for biological science. The Phenoscape project (http://phenoscape.org) develops methods and tools for using ontologies to integrate comparative morphological data with mutant phenotypes of genetic model organisms. As such we are very interested in participation from members of the evolutionary biology community to explore how best to integrate taxonomy into an ontological framework. Issues include proper semantics of the relationship between taxonomic groups, and between specimens and species. Subscribe to the mailing list: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/obo-taxonomy Additional info: http://blog.phenoscape.org/2008/05/15/taxonomy-as-ontology-opening- the-debate/ Acknowledgments: The Phenoscape project (http://phenoscape.org/) is funded by NSF-BDI and supported by the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center (NESCent; http://nescent.org). -hilmar -- =========================================================== : Hilmar Lapp -:- Durham, NC -:- informatics.nescent.org : ===========================================================

[tdwg-lit] wiki on open access movement
by Donat Agosti 06 May '08

06 May '08

Attached a brief description of the new Open Acces Directory, a resource on Open Access. I think this is helpful, because we will not succeed with our effort to build a global biodiversity heritage libray which is up to date with the last new publication, unless our community moves to and adopts open access as a standard.s Donat .......... Open Access Directory: A wiki to organize information about the open access movement Boston, April 30, 2008. Peter Suber and Robin Peek have launched the Open Access Directory (OAD), a wiki where the open access community can create and maintain simple factual lists about open access to science and scholarship. Suber, a Research Professor of Philosophy at Earlham College, and Peek, an Associate Professor of Library and Information Science at Simmons College, conceived the project in order to collect OA-related lists for one-stop reference and searching. The wiki will start operating with about half a dozen lists --for example, conferences devoted to open access, discussion forums devoted to open access, and journal "declarations of independence"-- and add more over time. The goal is to harness the knowledge and energy of the open access community itself to enlarge and correct the lists. A list on a wiki, revised continuously by its users, can be more comprehensive and up to date than the same list maintained by an individual. By bringing many OA-related lists together in one place, OAD will make it easier for users, especially newcomers, to discover them and use them for reference. The easier they are to maintain and discover, the more effectively they can spread useful, accurate information about open access. The URL for the Open Access Directory is http://oad.simmons.edu <http://oad.simmons.edu/> . To contact us, email Athanasia Pontika, the Assistant Editor (OAD.contact(a)gmail.com), or the Editorial Board (OAD.editors(a)gmail.com). The wiki is represented by an editorial board consisting of prominent figures in the open access movement.

[tdwg-lit] start of Zootaxa/Plazi/Zoobank GBIF funded project
by Donat Agosti 01 Apr '08

01 Apr '08

Today is the official launch of the GBIF funded project to mark up all the fish, ant and platygasteroid wasps papers published in Zootaxa using Taxonx, make all the descriptions online accessible at plazi (and hopefully soon at Zoobank and other sites), and feed all the names into Zoobank. In return, all the marked up names will be enhanced using LSID fed from Zoobank or domain specific name servers. Progress can be monitored at http://plazi.org:8080/GgSRS/search at journal/publisher="Zootaxa". The project PI is Zhi-Qiang Zhang at Zootaxa. We expect to mark up about 300 publications, including ca 600 new and 6.000 old names and minimally 600 descriptions. Additionally all the names published in any of the 3.600 papers published since 2001 will be entered into Zoobank. It will last one 18 months. We appreciate any comments, questions and hope that the result will not only be content but convince our community to consider making their own publications machine readable and accessible to the world, and make links to the treatments from your own thematic Web sites.

[tdwg-lit] st. louis follow up
by Donat Agosti 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

Hi Anna What is the status of the products we are supposed to deliver by the end of March? What has happened to the Moore foundation meeting? 6 Discussion of future issues and next steps for 2008. Future issues were discussed throughout the meeting. Priorities are: 1. Work to finalise the Vocabularly standard (as described above) via the Wiki by 31 Mar 2008 in order to propose as a TDWG standard. 2. Cleanup the High level content standard (as described above and noted in document) to be finalised via the Wiki by 31 Mar 2008 in order to propose as a TDWG standard. 3. Planning for a possible Moore foundation meeting as needed. 4. Make contact with holders of existing standards and form a plan for their long-term maintenance and availability. Also make a plan for similar standard lists for Zoology. What is the status of the Literature wiki? It seems to be dysfunctional?

[tdwg-tnc] Testing TCS and some ideas on GUIDs and ontologies: ranking synomymies
by Robert Huber 28 Feb '08

28 Feb '08

Dear all, I just have finished a TCS XML demo page at: http://taxonconcept.stratigraphy.net/taxon_tcs?taxid=793 which is a TCS representation of synonym list (concepts) data on the taxon 'Subbotina patagonica' published by Berggren & Norris (1997) and Pearson et al. (2006), see a html output here: http://taxonconcept.stratigraphy.net/taxon_details?taxid=793 The XML valdates against the schema, but of course, what I have implemented is a 'interpretation' of the standard, e.g. I have now summarized the two synonymies to one DataSet, and I am not sure if this granularity makes sense. So I would like to ask you to check if the output looks reasonable. I was really happy to see how good TCS fits to my data and after I have seen the first results I realized how good this fits to an experiment I was trying some months ago: I tried to apply the Google PageRank algorithm to synonymies and as a first attempt I calculated what I called TaxonRank. I have provided some more info on this here: http://stratigraphynet.blogspot.com/2008/01/how-taxonrank-works.html (+ my geoinformatics community prepared a special volume on ontologies etc and I have also submitted a paper to Computers&Geosciences which will be published soon). After seeing the TCS XML output and reading many RDF and ontology related mailing list contributions I wonder if anybody has ever thought about doing something like this before? My tests are on synonymy list (concepts) only, but I think similar approaches could lead to interesting results also if applied to e.g. genetics. And..wouldn't be ranking based on such ontologies a killer application for GUIDs? apologies for cross posting..

[tdwg-lit] plazi.org: new repository for taxonomic descriptions
by Donat Agosti 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

This is a live application based on TDWG standards and those under discussion (eg Taxonx for literature). It is making use of LSIDs. PLAZI.ORG - THE DIGITAL REPOSITORY FOR SPECIES DESCRIPTIONS. Knowledge of the actual number of species on planet Earth is one of the last frontiers in science. It is not known exactly how many species have been identified and described, much less the number of as yet undescribed species. However, the species we do know are documented in well over hundred million pages of printed scientific books and journals. This knowledge is hidden in libraries, and no single library holds all this knowledge. The species descriptions are very rich in data, essentially a quality controlled summary of what is known at any specific time about a particular species. In best cases, this information includes a detailed morphological description, drawings and images, a summary on behavior and ecology and a detailed list of all the specimens studied. In more recent publications, links to DNA sequences or video documentation among other forms of data may be provided. Recently e-publications have become available, but many of these are copyrighted and thus not generally available open to the public for perusal or use. Nor are they easily machine-searchable for discovery and re-use of contents. Recently, the Biodiversity Heritage Library as a large scale operation to digitize this biodiversity literature has been launched. Currently, it includes major US and UK natural history libraries, with the ultimate goal of including the entire global literature. All publications will be openly accessible to the public, unless they are copyrighted -- thus most of the recent publications are still out of reach. The BHL thus falls short of optimizing the potential uses of these publications. Tagging the boundaries of a species description and identifying the species dealt with, supports discovery and retrieval of data not possible through Google. Mark-up of species descriptions permits queries, such as which are the "red ant in London", a very common form of query. Under some national copyright legislation like the Swiss, descriptions can not be copyrighted because they are through historical constraints (there are tens of millions of descriptions) and peer review standardized and listing factual, in most cases morphological data describing species, and thus they can all be made readily accessible. Plazi.org is a new Web based service that offers access to descriptions of species and an archive to store the publications as marked up documents. GoldenGate, a dedicated editor has been developed to mark up the publications supporting the extraction of descriptions, based on a TaxonX, an XML schema modeling the logic content of these publications. The Plazi Search and Retrieval Server, building on this systematic mark-up of texts, allows powerful search functions to find species descriptions, or even simple mention of species, permitting users to answer questions like: Which species occur together? Plazi.org includes already more than 3,700 description of 3,000 taxa with a goal of archiving all the forthcoming new descriptions and, contingent upon additional funding, all the descriptions of the known 12,278 ant species listed in the Hymenoptera Name Server/ antbase.org, enhanced with globally unique species numbers (LSIDs: Life Science Identifiers). While ants provide the original test case, the service is not restricted to ants but is potentially open to all groups, from Bacteria to Plants, and will support most major languages. All descriptions are machine readable and thus can be picked up for mash-ups or individual Websites. Plazi.org is run and developed by Donat Agosti, Terry Catapano, Christiana Klingenberg and Guido Sautter, its development is supported by Grants from the US National Science Foundation (to the American Museum of Natural History), the German Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (to University of Karlsruhe) and the Global Biodiveristy Facility (GBIF; to Plazi.org and Zootaxa), and is collaborating with the Hymenoptera Name Server at Ohio State University (Norm Johnson), Zoobank (Richard Pyle), University of Massachusetts (Robert Morris), antweb.org (Brian Fisher) and Zootaxa (Zhi-Qiang Zhang).
