_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     A set of gene names may have been used to report yeast genes
     represented by ORF ids. One such names has been used as the
     primary gene name and the rest are considered as alias names to
     the promary name. This data set maps ORF ids to alias gene names

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     This is an environment object containing key and value pairs. Keys
     are ORF ids and values are alias gene names. Values are vectors of
     length 1 or more depending on whether an ORF id can be mapped to
     one or more alias names. ORF ids that can not be mapped to
     descriptive information are assigned a value NA.
