Query Language Search
This searches the underlying ACeDB database using either the old-style
WormBase Query Language (WQL) or the new Ace Query Language (AQL)
AQL examples
- Example 1: Find loci between positions 5 and 10 on chromosome IV
select l, pos from l in class Gene, map in l->Map where map = "IV", pos in map[Position] where pos > 5.0 and pos < 10.0 - Example 2: Find Rearrangements with left ends before position 4 on chromosome IV and right ends beyond position 4.5,
select r, left, right from r in class Rearrangement, map in r->Map where map = "IV", left in map[Left] where left < 4.0, right in map[right] where right > 4.5 - See the Acedb web site for documentation and examples
WQL examples
- Type in a search term using the Ace query language. Separate multiple statements with semicolons.
- Examples:
find Author COUNT Paper > 100
find Author IS "Garvin*" ; >Laboratory; >Staff
