Bio::Map::Contig - A MapI implementation handling the contigs of a Physical Map (such as FPC)

    # get the contig object of $contig from the Bio::Map::Physical
    my $ctgobj = $physical->get_contigobj($contig);
    # acquire all the markers that lie in this contig
    foreach my $marker ($ctgobj->each_markerid()) {
        print "   +++$marker\n";
    }
    # find the group of this contig
    print "Group: ",$ctgobj->group(),"\n";
    # find the range of this contig
    print "RANGE: start:",$ctgobj->range()->start(),"\tend: ",
           $ctgobj->range()->end(),"\n";
    # find the position of this contig in $group (chromosome)
    print "Position in Group $group"," = ",$ctgobj->position($group),"\n";

This is an implementation of Bio::Map::MapI. It handles the essential storage of name, species, type, and units as well as in memory representation of the elements of a map.

Bio::Map::Contig has been tailored to work for FPC physical maps, but could probably be used for others as well (with the appropriate MapIO module).

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.

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.

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

 Title   : new
 Usage   : my $clone = Bio::Map::Contig->new
                      (
                       -name    => $name,
                       -chr_remark   => $cremark,

                       );
 Function: Initialize a new Bio::Map::Contig object
           Most people will not use this directly but get Markers
           through L<Bio::MapIO::fpc>
 Returns : L<Bio::Map::Contig> object
 Args    : ( -name    => name string,
             -chr_remark   => chr remark string,
             -user_remark  => userremark string,
             -trace_remark => tremark string,
             -group   => group string,
             -subgroup=> subgroup string,
             -anchor  => boolean if this is anchored or not,
             -markers => hashref of contained markers,
             -clones  => hashref of contained clones,
             -position => position
             -range    => L<Bio::Range>

All methods present in Bio::Map::SimpleMap are implemented by this class. Most of the methods are inherited from SimpleMap. The following methods have been modified to reflect the needs of physical maps.

 Title   : chr_remark
 Usage   : my $chrremark = $contigobj->chr_remark();
 Function: Get/set the group remark for this contig
 Returns : scalar representing the current group_remark of this contig
 Args    : none to get, OR string to set

 Title   : user_remark
 Usage   : my $userremark = $contigobj->user_remark();
 Function: Get/set the user remark for this contig
 Returns : scalar representing the current user_remark of this contig
 Args    : none to get, OR string to set

 Title   : trace_remark
 Usage   : my $traceremark = $contigobj->trace_remark();
 Function: Get/set the trace remark for this contig
 Returns : scalar representing the current trace_remark of this contig
 Args    : none to get, OR string to set

 Title   : range
 Usage   : my $range = $contigobj->range();
 Function: Get/set the range for this Contig
 Returns : Bio::Range representing the current range of this contig,
           start and end of the contig can be thus found using:
           my $start = $contigobj->range()->start();
           my $end   = $contigobj->range()->end();
 Args    : none to get, OR Bio::Range to set

 Args    : none to get, OR string to set

 Title   : group
 Usage   : $groupno = $contigobj->group();
 Function: Get/set the group number for this contig.
           This is a generic term, used for Linkage-Groups as well as for
           Chromosomes.

           Linkage Group. The user must take care of which subgroup he/she is
           querying for.

 Title   : each_cloneid
 Usage   : my @clones  = $map->each_cloneid();
 Function: retrieves all the clone ids in a map unordered

 *** This only supplies the ids set with the set_clones method ***
 *** It has nothing to do with actual Bio::Map::MappableI objects ***

 Title   : each_markerid
 Usage   : my @markers = $map->each_markerid();
 Function: retrieves all the marker ids in a map unordered
