NAME

       Bio::Map::Clone - An central map object representing a clone

SYNOPSIS

          # get the clone object of $clone from the Bio::Map::Clone
          my $cloneobj = $physical->get_cloneobj($clone);

          # acquire all the markers that hit this clone
          foreach my $marker ($cloneobj->each_markerid()) {
              print "   +++$marker\n";
          }

       See Bio::Map::Position and Bio::Map::PositionI for more information.

DESCRIPTION

       This object handles the notion of a clone. This clone will have a name and a position in a
       map.

       This object is intended to be used by a map parser like fpc.pm.

FEEDBACK

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

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

       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.

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

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

       The project was done in Arizona Genomics Computational Laboratory (AGCoL) at University of
       Arizona.

       This work was funded by USDA-IFAFS grant #11180 titled "Web Resources for the Computation
       and Display of Physical Mapping Data".
