[Bioperl-l] parse long organism name

I didn't get any error msg.

When I parse the organism name with the following methods:

my $organism = $seq_object->species->binomial();
my $species = $seq_object->species->species();
my $genus = $seq_object->species->genus();
my $common_name = $seq_object->species->common_name();

I got the following value

$organism as Paphiopedilum 'Dark
$species as   Paphiopedilum
$genus as 'Dark
$common_name as  Paphiopedilum 'Dark Roller' x Paphiopedilum 
rothschildianum

So, the common_name is correct, while binmial(), species(), and genus() all 
assume that the name is in CORRECT species, genus form.
