Template:ChadoTable pubauthor

This template is a Chado Table Template. It defines a single table from the Chado schema, and every Chado table has a template like this one. This template is automatically included in two places:

1. The module page for the module the table is a part of. This is where updates and comments should be posted.
2. The Chado Tables page, which lists all tables.

You can include this template anywhere you want to show the table description.

Table:	pubauthor
Module:	Publication

An author for a publication. Note the denormalisation (hence lack of _ in table name) - this is deliberate as it is in general too hard to assign IDs to authors.

pubauthor columns

FK	Name	Type	Description
	pubauthor_id	serial	PRIMARY KEY
pub	pub_id	integer	UNIQUE#1 NOT NULL
	rank	integer	UNIQUE#1 NOT NULL Order of author in author list for this pub - order is important.
	editor	boolean	DEFAULT false Indicates whether the author is an editor for linked publication. Note: this is a boolean field but does not follow the normal chado convention for naming booleans.

	givennames	character varying(100)	First name, initials
	suffix	character varying(100)	Jr., Sr., etc
