Dear Colleagues

I just downloaded the flyBaseGene table in gtf format and found 79  
features where the strand equals ".". The gene names are CG32491-R?  
where ? is T through Z. The original table appears to have the same  
field:

#filter: flyBaseGene.name = 'CG32491-RV' #bin   name    chrom   strand   
txStart txEnd   cdsStart        cdsEnd  exonCount       exonStarts      exonEnds
716     CG32491-RV      chr3R   .       17194101        17203121        
17194594        17202748        5        
17194101,17200781,17202323,17202540,17203009,    
17194784,17201634,17202463,17202798,17203121,
The browser shows the features on the negative strand.
Should the strand field be '-'?
Thanks
Mike
