Re: Spltting Genbank File

I and others would be very interested in seeing some of these errors, I'm sure, but right off the top of my head, you might try the following changes:

my $genfile = 'c:\bemisia_coi.gb';

and

my @line = split(/\/\//,$line); # If you want to split on //

and

my $sequence = "/origin(\*+)\/\/\"; # as above

Good on you for using strict and warnings, though. The specific errors that you're getting will do wonders for helping us understand what specific problems you have.

my $genfile = 'c:\bemisia_coi.gb';

I know that your specification is technically correct, but since the OP is new to Perl and programming, I think it would be better to escape the backslash, though it's not strictly necessary here:

my $genfile = 'c:\\bemisia_coi.gb';
