+**GenBank format** An example of a GenBank record may be viewed here_

+
+**GFF3** Generic Feature Format is a format for describing genes and other features associated with DNA, RNA and Protein sequences. GFF3 lines have nine tab-separated fields::
+
+    1. seqid - Must be a chromosome or scaffold or contig.
+    2. source - The program that generated this feature.
+    3. type - The name of this type of feature. Some examples of standard feature types are "gene", "CDS", "protein", "mRNA", and "exon".
+    4. start - The starting position of the feature in the sequence. The first base is numbered 1.
+    5. stop - The ending position of the feature (inclusive).
+    6. score - A score between 0 and 1000. If there is no score value, enter ".".
+    7. strand - Valid entries include '+', '-', or '.' (for don't know/care).
+    8. phase - If the feature is a coding exon, frame should be a number between 0-2 that represents the reading frame of the first base. If the feature is not a coding exon, the value should be '.'.
+    9. attributes - All lines with the same group are linked together into a single item.
