Description
The most relevant Quick Search suggestion should be listed at the top when text is entered into the search box.
The problem is that a user may enter text into the Quick Search box and see multiple suggestions that appear in the drop-down box below.
Clicking enter will automatically navigate to one of the suggestions, but it isn't clear which one will be navigated to.
To illustrate the problem:
1) Go to the arabidopsis genome and type "LHY" into the quick search box.
*Notice that you will see a few suggestions, but the most relevant one is not on top. The actual "LHY" gene is sandwhiched in the middle of the suggestions (See screenshot). Which one will IGB go to if a user hits enter?
In the above scenario it is clear that IGB may go to "LHY" because it is clearly more relevant, but what about this one?
1) Go to the arabidopsis genome and type "yellow" into the quick search box.
*You will notice that many different suggestions appear. Now try to guess which one IGB will go to when a user hits enter. You will find that it's not clear.
