Phylogenetics

Biological data toolkit. Sequence analysis, alignments, phylogenetic trees, diversity metrics (alpha/beta, UniFrac), ordination (PCoA), PERMANOVA, FASTA/Newick I/O, for microbiome analysis.

Phylogenetic tree toolkit (ETE). Tree manipulation (Newick/NHX), evolutionary event detection, orthology/paralogy, NCBI taxonomy, visualization (PDF/SVG), for phylogenomics.

Primary Python toolkit for molecular biology. Preferred for Python-based PubMed/NCBI queries (Bio.Entrez), sequence manipulation, file parsing (FASTA, GenBank, FASTQ, PDB), advanced BLAST workflows, structures, phylogenetics. For quick BLAST, use gget. For direct REST API, use pubmed-database.
