The gff3_fix program fixes 30 error types detected by the program gff3_QC.py. The section 'gff3_fix' lists all error types that currently can be fixed by the gff3_fix.py function (currently 30), including the method used for the fix. (Note that in some cases, this means removing the affected gene model). The section 'Fix function' describes the methods used to fix the error type in question. The section 'Currently no automatic fix available' lists the error types which gff3_fix currently does not handle.

| fix function | method |
|---|---|
| delete_model | remove the whole model from the original gff3 file |
| remove_duplicate_trans | remove the duplicate transcripts |
| remove_directive | remove the directive |
| pseudogene | remove CDS feature and change the feature type of the other feature: first-level → pseudogene; second-level → pseudogenic_transcript; third-level(exon) → pseudogenic_exon |
| fix_boundary | update the coordinate of the parent by using the minimum and the maximum coordinate of the child feature |
| fix_phase | correct phase by the function next_phase = (3 - ((CDS['end'] - CDS['start'] + 1 - phase) % 3)) % 3. Note: If the first CDS segment doesn't have a phase, the initial phase will be 0. |
| fix_attributes | remove empty attribute tag/value; remove the redundant equal sign(=); remove dupliacte attribute; make the first character of the unknown reserved attribute lower case; merge multiple attribute tag and remove the duplicate attribute value; replace , with %2C
|
| split | split the incorrectly merged transcript from a gene model and generate a new gene model |
| merge | merge the incorrectly split gene model |
| add_gff3_version | Add ##gff-version 3 to the first line of gff3 file |
| gff3 parse | parse the gff3 file; ignore blank line in gff3; remove the white chars at the start of a line |
