Phenotype Prediction Rules in IMG are defined as AND-OR rules based on IMG pathway assertions.
Phenotype rules range from complex, such as (i) the rule for predicting “Growth on cellulose via cellobiose” which involves multiple IMG pathways, to very simple, such as (ii) the rule for predicting “L-histidine prototroph” which involves one IMG pathway.
