This object provides some convience function to turn sequence alignments into usable objects for the Population genetics modules (Bio::PopGen).

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list. Your participation is much appreciated.

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track of the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the web:

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

 Title   : aln_to_population
 Usage   : my $pop = Bio::PopGen::Utilities->aln_to_population($aln);
 Function: Turn and alignment into a set of L<Bio::PopGen::Individual>
           objects grouped in a L<Bio::PopGen::Population> object
           Sites are treated as 'Markers' in the Bioperl PopGen object
           model in the sense that a site is a unique location for which
           an individual will have a genotype (a set of alleles). 
           In this implementation we are assuming that each individual 
           has a single entry in the alignment file.
           Specify a site model as one of those listed
           'all' -- every base in the alignment is considered a site
           'cod' -- codons 
           The option -site_model
                for All sites          : 'all' 
                    Codon sites        : 'cod' or 'codon'
          To see all sites, including those which are fixed in the population
          add -include_monomorphic => 1
          to the arguments
 Returns : 
 Args    : -include_monomorphic => 1   to specify all sites, 
                                       even those which are monomorphic
                                       in the population 
                                  (useful for HKA test mostly) 
                            [default is false]
           -phase          => specify a phase for the data, this is only
                              used if the site_mode is codon
                            [default is 0]
           -site_model     => one-of 'all', 'codon'
                             to specify a site model for the data extraction
                             from the alignment
                            [default is all]
           -alignment      => provide a L<Bio::SimpleAlign> object [required]
