The import of genetic IDs keeps has separate values for the genetic ID in:

  1. publication label
  2. genetic analysis

These can disagree when the genetic ID is changed.

The genetic ID string from the publication label needs to be removed.

Start by tracing the genetic-ID import path and locating where the publication-label and genetic-analysis values are assigned. Remove the separate publication-label genetic ID storage, then verify that imported records retain a single consistent genetic ID when the ID changes.
