Re: [Gmod-ajax] refseqs

[Scott C. <sc...@sc...>]

Hi Anja,

I'm not sure what you're asking.  In GFF, the text in the first column
is called the reference sequence, and is what all of the features that
are displayed in a genome browser are displayed on (that is, the
features are in reference to them).  With genomes that are well
sequenced and annotated, the reference sequence is usually a
chromosome, but contig, BAC or transcript are also used as reference
sequences.

Does that help?

Scott
