Right, or more precisely, to get the default for your primary key
column  myschema.mytab.mycol
use:

SELECT pg_catalog.pg_get_expr(d.adbin, d.adrelid) FROM pg_catalog.pg_attrdef d JOIN pg_catalog.pg_attribute a ON
d.adrelid= a.attrelid AND d.adnum 
= a.attnum JOIN pg_catalog.pg_class c ON c.oid = a.attrelid JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON n.oid = c.relnamespace
WHERE n.nspname = 'myschema' AND c.relname = 'mytab' AND a.attname =
'mycol'
ORDER BY a.attnum

Gives you something like:  nextval('mytab_mycol_seq'::regclass)
The quotet part being the sequence in use.

Where do I get this? Try psql -E  and work from there. (Shows the
queries psql uses to retrieve its data.)


But all of this is hardly on topic here. Please turn to  pgsql.admin (pgsql-admin(at)postgresql(dot)org)
or  pgsql.general (pgsql-general(at)postgresql(dot)org)
