NAME

       Bio::DB::GFF::Homol -- A segment of DNA that is homologous to another

SYNOPSIS

       See Bio::DB::GFF.

DESCRIPTION

       Bio::DB::GFF::Homol is a named subtype of Bio::DB::GFF::Segment.  It inherits all the
       methods of its parent, and was created primarily to allow for isa() queries and for
       compatibility with Ace::Sequence::Homol.

       A Homol object is typically returned as the method result of the
       Bio::DB::GFF::Feature->target() method.

METHODS

   name
        Title   : name
        Usage   : $name = $homol->name
        Function: get the ID of the homology object
        Returns : a string
        Args    : none
        Status  : Public

   asString
        Title   : asString
        Usage   : $name = $homol->asString

        Args    : none
        Status  : Public

   id
        Title   : id
        Usage   : $id = $homol->id
        Function: get database ID in class:id format

        Status  : Public
