thank a lot but i used it , i have error this this

undefined method `select_tag' for #<ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder:0xb788a2a4>

use it as a symbol :organelle rather than as a string "organelle" make sure the :organelle field is made available in ur model seqfeature

change like

<%= form.select :organelle, (["", "mitochondrion", "nucleomorph", "plastid", "mitochondrion: kinetoplast", "plastid: chloroplast", "plastid: apicoplast", "plastid: chromoplast", "plastid: cyanelle", "plastid: leucoplast", "plastid: protoplastid" ]) %>

     and it will submit to the create action of seqfeature controller. .There you can write the code as in def view
