Dear all,
I have a set of accession numbers and I want to retrieve the organism
that the sequence is associated with - i.e. the content of the OS line
in an embl file. I don't need the taxonomic id, and I don't need to
start traversing taxonomy trees. I want to do this by accessing remote
databases (via srs, as configured in my emboss.defaults file), rather
than indexing databases locally.
Coming soon. EMBOSS 6.3.0 will include the capability to pick up the taxid
and to parse the NCBI taxonomy. This opens up a lot of possibilities.
You could also write a little EMBOSS utility to report the Tax string from
the sequence object.
Suggestions for ways to use this information in a future release are welcome.
regards,
Peter
