Since the top-level of the taxonomy is sometimes referred to as 'kingdom' and sometimes as 'domain', the functions \code{\link[=mo_kingdom]{mo_kingdom()}} and \code{\link[=mo_domain]{mo_domain()}} return the exact same results.
The Gram stain - \code{\link[=mo_gramstain]{mo_gramstain()}} - will be determined based on the taxonomic kingdom and phylum. According to Cavalier-Smith (2002, \href{https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11837318}{PMID 11837318}), who defined subkingdoms Negibacteria and Posibacteria, only these phyla are Posibacteria: Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi, Firmicutes and Tenericutes. These bacteria are considered Gram-positive, except for members of the class Negativicutes which are Gram-negative. Members of other bacterial phyla are all considered Gram-negative. Species outside the kingdom of Bacteria will return a value \code{NA}. Functions \code{\link[=mo_is_gram_negative]{mo_is_gram_negative()}} and \code{\link[=mo_is_gram_positive]{mo_is_gram_positive()}} always return \code{TRUE} or \code{FALSE} (except when the input is \code{NA} or the MO code is \code{UNKNOWN}), thus always return \code{FALSE} for species outside the taxonomic kingdom of Bacteria.
The Gram stain - \code{\link[=mo_gramstain]{mo_gramstain()}} - will be determined based on the taxonomic kingdom and phylum. Originally, Cavalier-Smith defined the so-called subkingdoms Negibacteria and Posibacteria (2002, \href{https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11837318/}{PMID 11837318}), and only considered these phyla as Posibacteria: Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi, Firmicutes, and Tenericutes. All of these phyla were renamed to Actinomycetota, Chloroflexota, Bacillota, and Mycoplasmatota (2021, \href{https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34694987/}{PMID 34694987}). Bacteria in these phyla are considered Gram-positive in this \code{AMR} package, except for members of the class Negativicutes (within phylum Bacillota) which are Gram-negative. All other bacteria are considered Gram-negative. Species outside the kingdom of Bacteria will return a value \code{NA}. Functions \code{\link[=mo_is_gram_negative]{mo_is_gram_negative()}} and \code{\link[=mo_is_gram_positive]{mo_is_gram_positive()}} always return \code{TRUE} or \code{FALSE} (or \code{NA} when the input is \code{NA} or the MO code is \code{UNKNOWN}), thus always return \code{FALSE} for species outside the taxonomic kingdom of Bacteria.
Determination of yeasts - \code{\link[=mo_is_yeast]{mo_is_yeast()}} - will be based on the taxonomic kingdom and class. \emph{Budding yeasts} are fungi of the phylum Ascomycetes, class Saccharomycetes (also called Hemiascomycetes). \emph{True yeasts} are aggregated into the underlying order Saccharomycetales. Thus, for all microorganisms that are fungi and member of the taxonomic class Saccharomycetes, the function will return \code{TRUE}. It returns \code{FALSE} otherwise (except when the input is \code{NA} or the MO code is \code{UNKNOWN}).

Intrinsic resistance - \code{\link[=mo_is_intrinsic_resistant]{mo_is_intrinsic_resistant()}} - will be determined based on the \link{intrinsic_resistant} data set, which is based on \href{https://www.eucast.org/expert_rules_and_expected_phenotypes/}{'EUCAST Expert Rules' and 'EUCAST Intrinsic Resistance and Unusual Phenotypes' v3.3} (2021). The \code{\link[=mo_is_intrinsic_resistant]{mo_is_intrinsic_resistant()}} functions can be vectorised over arguments \code{x} (input for microorganisms) and over \code{ab} (input for antibiotics).
