NAME

Bio::MUST::Core - Core classes and utilities for Bio::MUST

VERSION

version 0.243430

DESCRIPTION

This distribution is the base of the Bio::MUST module collection designed for writing phylogenomic applications in Perl. Their main strength lies in their transparent handling of the NCBI Taxonomy database (see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy), for example to automatically label ancestral nodes in phylogenetic trees.

Bio::MUST classes do not need (and are not meant as a replacement for) BioPerl. In contrast, they depend on both Bio::LITE::Taxonomy and Bio::Phylo, two non-BioPerl distribution for dealing with biological data.

Bio::MUST modules have been used in production since 2013 but are not yet ready for wider adoption due to their lack of documentation. This should improve over time. Meanwhile, adventurous users can have a look at the Bio::MUST::Core::Ali class which is already fully documented.
