Bio::DB::GFF::Homol -- A segment of DNA that is homologous to another See Bio::DB::GFF. Bio::DB::GFF::Homol is a named subtype of Bio::DB::GFF::Segment. It inherits all the methods of its parent, and was created primarily to allow for isa() queries and for compatibility with Ace::Sequence::Homol. A Homol object is typically returned as the method result of the Bio::DB::GFF::Feature->target() method.
