additional doubts

To add on to my previous query,I have some additional questions using the code
Code:
sed 's/\(.*\)assumption\(.*\)\(ID=[^.]*\)[^;]*\(;.*\)/\1predictive\2\3\4\n&/' file

In my file, I have some instance where there are variants for the id name :For example One variant of id is f000012.1 and the other is f000012.2
File looks like this

Code:
sorce1       LEN   assumption    354569    361011   0.628724        +       .       ID=f000012.1;source_id=A.off_LEN_10008425;
sorce1       LEN   descriptive        354600    360111    .       +       0       Parent=f000012.1;

sorce1       LEN   assumption    350567    354686    0.628724        +       .       ID=f000012.2;source_id=A.off_LEN_10008425;
sorce1       LEN   descriptive     350567    353321    .       +       0                       Parent=f000012.2;


Using the mentioned command adds 2 lines

Code:
sorce1       LEN   predictive   354569    361011   0.628724        +       .       ID=f000012.1;source_id=A.off_LEN_10008425;

sorce1       LEN   assumption    354569    361011   0.628724        +       .       ID=f000012.1;source_id=A.off_LEN_10008425;
sorce1       LEN   descriptive        354600    360111    .       +       0       Parent=f000012.1;


sorce1       LEN  predictive     350567    354686    0.628724        +       .       ID=f000012.2;source_id=A.off_LEN_10008425;

sorce1       LEN   assumption    350567    354686    0.628724        +       .       ID=f000012.2;source_id=A.off_LEN_10008425;
sorce1       LEN   descrptive     350567    353321    .       +       0                       Parent=f000012.2;

---------- Post updated at 12:37 PM ---------- Previous update was at 12:35 PM ----------

Instead of two separate predictive lines for same id ,
Is there a way I could only a single line with predictive with using the earliest start point ie : and farthest away end point to represent the predictive statement?


The ID should have only the name without the variants like this
Code:
sorce1       LEN   predictive    350567    361011    0.628724        +       .       ID=f000012;source_id=A.off_LEN_10008425;

This should happen only for cases having variants of IDS ie have two ids one with.1 and .2
For other cases,it should follow the normal procedure of just adding a single line

Can this be possible?
