QtlFeatures are generally very long and its not clear wether a representation in Contig coordinates actually makes sense. In the database they will have chromosomal coordinates. =head1 METHODS =cut package Bio::EnsEMBL::Map::QtlFeature; use strict; use vars qw(@ISA); use Bio::EnsEMBL::Feature; @ISA = qw(Bio::EnsEMBL::Feature); =head2 new Arg [1] : Bio::EnsEMBL::Map::DBSQL::QtlFeatureAdaptor $adaptor Example : none Description: Create a QtlFeature Returntype : Bio::EnsEMBL::Map::QtlFeature Exceptions : none Caller : general, DBSQL::QtlFeatureAdaptor Status : Stable =cut sub new { my ( $class, $adaptor, $slice, $start, $end, $qtl, $analysis ) = @_; $class = ref( $class ) ||$class; my $self = bless( { 'adaptor' => $adaptor, 'slice' => $slice, 'start' => $start, 'end' => $end, 'qtl' => $qtl, 'analysis' => $analysis, 'strand' => 0 }, $class ); return $self; } =head2 qtl Arg [1] : Bio::EnsEMBL::Map::Qtl $qtl the qtl object for this feature Example : none Description: return the Qtl object associated with this location Returntype : Bio::EnsEMBL::Map::Qtl Exceptions : none Caller : general Status : Stable =cut sub qtl { my $self = shift; if(@_) { $self->{'qtl'} = shift; } return $self->{'qtl'}; } =head2 strand Arg [1] : none Example : $strand = $qtl_feat->strand(); Description: Overrides the Feature strand method to always return a value of 0 for qtl features (they are unstranded features) Returntype : int (always 0) Exceptions : none Caller : general Status : Stable =cut sub strand { my $self = shift; return 0; } =head2 move Arg [1] : $start - The new end of this qtl feature Arg [2] : $end - The new start of this qtl feature Arg [3] : $strand - ignored always set to 0 Example : $qtl_feat->move(1, 10_000); Description: Overrides superclass move() method to ensure strand is always 0.
