NAME

       Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::coding -- The Coding Region Aggregator

SYNOPSIS

         use Bio::DB::GFF;

         # Open the sequence database
         my $db      = Bio::DB::GFF->new( -adaptor => 'dbi:mysql',
                                          -dsn     => 'dbi:mysql:elegans42',
                                          -aggregator => ['coding'],
                                        );

DESCRIPTION

       Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::coding aggregates "CDS" features into a feature called "coding"
       and was written to be compatible with the Sequence Ontology canonical gene.  The CDS
       features are expected to belong to a parent of type "mRNA," but the aggregator will work
       even if this isn't the case.
