getmitogenome
by Pierre Jonniaux
Description
Getmitogenome is a script which mainly manipulates a complete or partial set of mitochondrial gene sequences from multiple taxa toward phylogenetic analyses. A complete set of gene sequences (amino acid sequences, as well) encoded in animal mitochondrial genomes can be retrieved from genbank or user’s personal data source (whether registered or unregistered to the public database). These gene sequences are automatically grouped, reordered and aligned against a pre-existing alignment for other taxa. Getmitogenome can also handle non-mitochondrial gene sequences based on user-assigned accession numbers to individual genes from multiple taxa. Please refer to the manual for more details.
