Question about gene coordinates #109

Open pipparichter opened 7 months ago

pipparichter commented 7 months ago

Hello! I am trying to use the output gene coordinates to find the gene in the original genome file. I was wondering how the coordinates are indexed when a file consists of contigs. Is the "start" gene coordinate relative to the start of the contig? Or the start of an assembled version of the genome?
