- * External databases can be used to indicate the source for a variety of data.
- * The most common use is with controlled vocabularies (CV). Chado expects that
- * every CV have an external database record, where the database name must be
- * the short name of the CV. In other cases, records such as features, stocks,
- * libraries, etc., can also be present in remote databases and these
- * associations can be made through dbxref linker tables. The API functions
- * provided here provide tools to easily work with external databases.
