get_entity_ObservationalUnit

An ObservationalUnit is an individual plant that 1) is part of an experiment or study, 2) has measured traits, and 3) is assayed for the purpose of determining alleles.

Example:

get_entity_ObservationalUnit -a < ids > table.with.fields.added

would read in a file of ids and add a column for each filed in the entity.

The standard input should be a tab-separated table (i.e., each line is a tab-separated set of fields). Normally, the last field in each line would contain the id. If some other column contains the id, use

-c N

where N is the column (from 1) that contains the id.

This is a pipe command. The input is taken from the standard input, and the output is to the standard output.
