=head1 NAME

Bio::SeqIO::genbank - GenBank sequence input/output stream

=head1 SYNOPSIS

It is probably best not to use this object directly, but
rather go through the SeqIO handler:

    $stream = Bio::SeqIO->new(-file   => $filename,
                              -format => 'GenBank');

    while ( my $seq = $stream->next_seq ) {
        # do something with $seq
    }


=head1 DESCRIPTION

This object can transform Bio::Seq objects to and from GenBank flat
file databases.

There is some flexibility here about how to write GenBank output
that is not fully documented.

=head2 Optional functions

=over 3

=item _show_dna()

(output only) shows the dna or not

=item _post_sort()

(output only) provides a sorting func which is applied to the FTHelpers
before printing

=item _id_generation_func()

This is function which is called as

   print "ID   ", $func($seq), "\n";

To generate the ID line. If it is not there, it generates a sensible ID
line using a number of tools.

If you want to output annotations in Genbank format they need to be
stored in a Bio::Annotation::Collection object which is accessible
through the Bio::SeqI interface method L<annotation()|annotation>.

The following are the names of the keys which are pulled from a
L<Bio::Annotation::Collection> object:

 reference       - Should contain Bio::Annotation::Reference objects
 comment         - Should contain Bio::Annotation::Comment objects
 dblink          - Should contain a Bio::Annotation::DBLink object
 segment         - Should contain a Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue object
 origin          - Should contain a Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue object
 wgs             - Should contain a Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue object

=back

=head1 Where does the data go?

Data parsed in Bio::SeqIO::genbank is stored in a variety of data
fields in the sequence object that is returned. Here is a partial list
of fields.

Items listed as RichSeq or Seq or PrimarySeq and then NAME() tell you
the top level object which defines a function called NAME() which
stores this information.

Items listed as Annotation 'NAME' tell you the data is stored the
associated Bio::AnnotationCollectionI object which is associated with
Bio::Seq objects.  If it is explicitly requested that no annotations
should be stored when parsing a record of course they will not be
available when you try and get them.  If you are having this problem
look at the type of SeqBuilder that is being used to contruct your
sequence object.

 Comments             Annotation 'comment'
 References           Annotation 'reference'
 Segment              Annotation 'segment'
 Origin               Annotation 'origin'
 Dbsource             Annotation 'dblink'

 Accessions           PrimarySeq accession_number()
 Secondary accessions RichSeq get_secondary_accessions()
 GI number            PrimarySeq primary_id()
 LOCUS                PrimarySeq display_id()
 Keywords             RichSeq get_keywords()
 Dates                RichSeq get_dates()
 Molecule             RichSeq molecule()
 Seq Version          RichSeq seq_version()
 PID                  RichSeq pid()
 Division             RichSeq division()
 Features             Seq get_SeqFeatures()
 Alphabet             PrimarySeq alphabet()
 Definition           PrimarySeq description() or desc()
 Version              PrimarySeq version()

 Sequence             PrimarySeq seq()

There is more information in the Feature-Annotation HOWTO about each
field and how it is mapped to the Sequence object
L<http://bioperl.open-bio.org/wiki/HOWTO:Feature-Annotation>.

=head1 FEEDBACK

=head2 Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one
of the Bioperl mailing lists.  Your participation is much appreciated.

  bioperl-l@bioperl.org                  - General discussion
  http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists  - About the mailing lists

=head2 Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
with code and data examples if at all possible.

=head2 Reporting Bugs

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the web:
