14 =head1 NAME
16 Bio::SeqFeature::Similarity - A sequence feature based on similarity
18 =head1 SYNOPSIS
20 # obtain a similarity feature somehow
21 print "significance: ", $sim_fea->significance(), "\n";
22 print "bit score: ", $sim_fea->bits(), "\n";
23 print "score: ", $sim_fea->score(), "\n";
24 print "fraction of identical residues: ", $sim_fea->frac_identical(), "\n";
26 =head1 DESCRIPTION
28 This module is basically a sequence features based on similarity, and therefore
29 has support for measures assessing the similarity.
31 Everything else is inherited from L<Bio::SeqFeature::Generic>.
33 =head1 FEEDBACK
35 =head2 Mailing Lists
37 User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this
38 and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably
39 to one of the Bioperl mailing lists.
40 Your participation is much appreciated.

45 =head2 Support
47 Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
49 I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>
51 rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
52 reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
53 address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
54 with code and data examples if at all possible.
56 =head2 Reporting Bugs
58 Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
59 the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the

115 Function:
116 Returns :
117 Args :

179 Function: At present this method is a shorthand for
180 $obj->annotation()->description().
182 Note that this is not stored in the tag system and hence will
183 not be included in the return value of gff_string().
184 Returns :
