Bio::Tree::AlleleNode - A Node with Alleles attached

  use Bio::Tree::AlleleNode;

AlleleNodes are basic Bio::Tree::Nodes with the added ability to add Genotypes alleles as defined by the Bio::PopGen::IndividualI interface. Genotypes are defined by the Bio::PopGen::GenotypeI interface, you will probably want to use the Bio::PopGen::Genotype implementation.

This is implemented via containment to avoid multiple inheritance problems. Their is a Bio::PopGen::Individual object which handles the Bio::PopGen::IndividualI interface, and is accessible via the Bio::Tree::AlleleNode::individual method.

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.

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

This module was re-written to be a combination of Bio::PopGen::Individual and Bio::Tree::Node primarily for use in Bio::PopGen::Simulation::Coalescent simulations.

 Function: Adds a descendent to a node
 Returns : number of current descendents for this node
 Args    : Bio::Node::NodeI
           boolean flag, true if you want to ignore the fact that you are
           adding a second node with the same unique id (typically memory 
           location reference in this implementation).  default is false and 
           will throw an error if you try and overwrite an existing node.

 Title   : each_Descendent($sortby)
 Usage   : my @nodes = $node->each_Descendent;
 Function: all the descendents for this Node (but not their descendents
                                              i.e. not a recursive fetchall)
 Returns : Array of Bio::Tree::NodeI objects
 Args    : $sortby [optional] "height", "creation" or coderef to be used
           to sort the order of children nodes.

 Title   : remove_Descendent
 Usage   : $node->remove_Descedent($node_foo);

 Title   : remove_all_Descendents
 Usage   : $node->remove_All_Descendents()
 Function: Cleanup the node's reference to descendents and reset
           their ancestor pointers to undef, if you don't have a reference

"A name can be any string of printable characters except blanks, colons, semicolons, parentheses, and square brackets. Because you may want to include a blank in a name, it is assumed that an underscore character ("_") stands for a blank; any of these in a name will be converted to a blank when it is read in."

 Title   : internal_id
 Usage   : my $internalid = $node->internal_id
 Function: Returns the internal unique id for this Node
           (a monotonically increasing number for this in-memory implementation
