[ensembl-dev] Retrieve the total number of base-pairs of DNA for an organism...

[Steve Moss]

Hi all,

Is there any easy way, using the Perl API, to retrieve the total number of
base-pairs of DNA for an organism? I wondered if there was a class method
implemented that could do this, or should I simply retrieve the length of
the sequence entry in the DNA table?

Cheers,

Steve
