class Bio::Blast::Report

`Bio::Blast::Report`¶ ↑

Parsed results of the blast execution for Tab-delimited and XML output format. Tab-delimited reports are consists of

Query id,
Subject id,
percent of identity,
alignment length,
number of mismatches (not including gaps),
number of gap openings,
start of alignment in query,
end of alignment in query,
start of alignment in subject,
end of alignment in subject,
expected value,
bit score.

according to the MEGABLAST document (README.mbl). As for XML output, see the following DTDs.

* http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/dtd/NCBI_BlastOutput.dtd
* http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/dtd/NCBI_BlastOutput.mod

Constants

DELIMITER: for Bio::FlatFile support (only for XML data)
FLATFILE_SPLITTER: Flatfile splitter for NCBI BLAST XML format. It is internally used when reading BLAST XML. Normally, users do not need to use it directly.

Attributes

db[R]

database name or title (String)

iterations[R]

Returns an Array of Bio::Blast::Report::Iteration objects.

parameters[R]

Returns a Hash containing execution parameters. Valid keys are: ‘matrix’, ‘expect’, ‘include’, ‘sc-match’, ‘sc-mismatch’, ‘gap-open’, ‘gap-extend’, ‘filter’

program[R]

program name (e.g. “blastp”) (String)

query_def[R]

query definition line (String)

query_id[R]

query ID (String)

query_len[R]

query length (Integer)

reference[R]

reference (String)

reports[R]

When the report contains results for multiple query sequences, returns an array of Bio::Blast::Report objects corresponding to the multiple queries. Otherwise, returns nil.

Note for “No hits found”: When no hits found for a query sequence, the result for the query is completely void and no information available in the result XML, including query ID and query definition. The only trace is that iteration number is skipped. This means that if the no-hit query is the last query, the query can not be detected, because the result XML is completely the same as the result XML without the query.

version[R]

BLAST version (e.g. “blastp 2.2.18 [Mar-02-2008]”) (String)
