[Genome] C. elegans refGene table and sangerGene table

[Andrew Kwon]

>From the C. elegans refGene table, searching for rows with name =
'NM_061506' returns 5 rows, 2 of which are from chrII, 2 from chrIV, and one
from chrV.  Searching for 'NM_061506' in sangerToRefSeq table returns 4
rows, including K02E7.3, K02B7.1, W03G1.4, R09E12.6.  

I don't understand why this is happening.  How can the same refseq id refer
to genes from different chromosomes?
