##gff-version 3 # #Nesting Features # #Many genomic features are discontinuous and have multiple #subparts. GFF3 represents such features by linking the parts #together with the Parent tag. For example, to represent an mRNA #transcript that has five exons, we could write this: # #The first feature is an mRNA that extends from position 1300 to 9000 #in genomic coordinates. It has an ID of "mrna0001" and a #human-readable name of "sonichedgehog" (note that the ID and the Name #are not the same thing). This is followed by five exon features, each #of which is linked to the mRNA using a Parent tag. When GBrowse #displays this transcript, it will display each of the exons linked #together by a solid line. The entire set can be found by searching #for the name "sonichedgehog." # ctg123 . mRNA 1300 9000 . + . ID=mrna0001;Name=sonichedgehog ctg123 . exon 1300 1500 . + .
