+  <p>Feature attributes can be included as <code>name=value</code> pairs in GFF3 column 9, including <em>(since Jalview 2.11.1.0)</em> 'nested' sub-attributes, for example:
+  <br><code>alleles=G,A,C;AF=6;CSQ=SIFT=deleterious,tolerated,PolyPhen=possibly_damaging(0.907)</code>
+  <br>where <code>SIFT</code> and <code>PolyPhen</code> are sub-attributes of <code>CSQ</code>. This data is preserved if features are output in GFF format (but not, currently,
+  in Jalview format).
