Slot: xref (multivalued)

Description: A database cross reference or alternative identifier for a NamedThing or edge between two NamedThings. This property should point to a database record or webpage that supports the existence of the edge, or gives more detail about the edge. This property can be used on a node or edge to provide multiple URIs or CURIE cross references.
Aliases: dbxref, Dbxref, DbXref, record_url, source_record_urls
