NAME

       Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::reftranscript -- Aggregates references transcripts

SYNOPSIS

       use Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator;

DESCRIPTION

       Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::retranscript was written to make the compound feature,
       "reftranscript" for use with Gbrowse editing software developed outside of the GMOD
       development group.  It can be used to aggregate "reftranscripts" from "refexons", loaded
       as second copy features.  These features, in contrast to "transcripts", are usually
       implemented as features which cannot be edited and serve as starting point references for
       annotations added using Gbrowse for feature visualization.

       Adding features to the compound feature, "reftranscript", can be done by adding to the
       "part_names" call (i.e. "refCDS").
