phylo_seq_gen

Pulls sequences of a reference gene (i.e. recA) from a set of genomes. A MSA of these sequences can be used to construct a phylogeny.

Usage

Need to setup the conda evironment.

Input file is expected to be in the ./input/ directory. Output is saved to the ./output/ directory. The output file is a FASTA file with the sequence of interest for each target species.

python phylo_seq_gen.py [input_file_name] [output_file_name]

Example Input file:

{
  "target_genomes": [
    {
