=head1 NAME
Bio::PopGen::Utilities - Utilities for working with PopGen data and objects
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Bio::PopGen::Utilities;
use Bio::AlignIO;
my $in = new Bio::AlignIO(-file => 't/data/t7.aln',
-format => 'clustalw');
my $aln = $in->next_aln;
# get a population, each sequence is an individual and
# for the default case, every site which is not monomorphic
# is a 'marker'. Each individual will have a 'genotype' for the
# site which will be the specific base in the alignment at that
# site
my $pop = Bio::PopGen::Utilities->aln_to_population(-alignment => $aln);
# get the synonymous sites from the alignemt only as the 'genotypes'
# for the population
my $synpop = Bio::PopGen::Utilities->aln_to_population(-site_model => 'syn',
-alignment => $aln);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This object provides some convience function to turn sequence
alignments into usable objects for the Population genetics modules
(Bio::PopGen).

=head2 aln_to_population
Title : aln_to_population
Usage : my $pop = Bio::PopGen::Utilities->aln_to_population($aln);
Function: Turn and alignment into a set of L<Bio::PopGen::Individual>
objects grouped in a L<Bio::PopGen::Population> object
Sites are treated as 'Markers' in the Bioperl PopGen object
model in the sense that a site is a unique location for which
an individual will have a genotype (a set of alleles).
In this implementation we are assuming that each individual
has a single entry in the alignment file.
Specify a site model as one of those listed
'all' -- every base in the alignment is considered a site
'syn' -- Synonomous sites. Those where a seen substition do
not change the amino acid [Assumes this is only
coding sequence and the frame starts with first base
in the alignment]
'non' -- Non-Synonomous sites. Those where a substitution changes
the encoded amino acid.
The option -site_model
for Non-synonymous: 'non' or 'non-synonomous' or 'NS' or 'Ka'
Synonymous : 'synonomous' or 'syn' or 'S' or 'Ks'
All : 'all'
To see all sites, including those which are fixed in the population
add -include_monomorphic => 1
to the arguments
Returns :
Args : -include_monomorphic => 1 to specify all sites,
even those which are monomorphic
in the population
(useful for HKA test mostly)
[default is false]
-site_model => one-of 'all', 'syn', or 'non'
to specify a site model you want to see data
for
[default is all]
-alignment => provide a L<Bio::SimpleAlign> object [required]
