Linking to OrganismView
It is easy to link to OrganismView and either retrieve a specific organism or search for an organism by name or description. Parameters to find an organism can be passed through CGI on the URL. For example:
http://syntney.cnr.berkeley.edu/CoGe/OrganismView.pl?org_name=coli
This will automatically begin a search for all organism names that contain 'coli'.
The parameters that can be passed on the URL are:
- org_name=name search for any organism whose name contains 'name'
- org_desc=description search for any organism whose description contains 'description'. CoGe usually uses NCBI's organism taxonomy descriptions.
