Hi Dave,

I have loaded my GBrowse (<http://www.animalgenome.org:2358/cgi-bin/gbrowse/>http://www.animalgenome.org/cgi-bin/gbrowse/) using Scott's script "load_genbank.pl" without involving GFF files. I have yet to figure out how the changes you suggested be done with the script... I am learning that the column 9 of GFF3 file can be very "information rich"! ;-)

Thank you!

Zhiliang

It displayed alright, but just wonder if this is the right way to do?  (wonder if ACCESSION also used for other things like web links).
