NAME
Bio::SearchIO::axt - a parser for axt format reports
SYNOPSIS
use Bio::SearchIO;
my $parser = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'axt',
-file => 't/data/report.blastz');
while( my $result = $parser->next_result ) {
while( my $hit = $result->next_hit ) {
while( my $hsp = $hit->next_hsp ) {
}
}
}
DESCRIPTION
This is a parser and event-generator for AXT format reports. BLASTZ reports (Schwartz et al,(2003) Genome Research, 13:103-107) are
normally in LAV format but are commonly post-processed to AXT format; many precomputed BLASTZ reports, such as those found in the UCSC
Genome Browser, are in AXT format. This parser will also parse any AXT format produced from any lav report and directly out of BLAT.
