crowyn has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am trying to get different subtree from a big tree and output to file(either newick format or picture format). I am using function get_lca from Bio::Tree::TreeFunctionsI module to get my interested Node object. But I do not know how to transform this object into TreeI object so that I can use write_tree to output it. I am newbie to bioperl. So, any suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Hi crowyn,

    Can you post the code you have written so far? I haven't spent a great deal of time looking at BioPerl but I suspect several monks could offer some general (programming related) advice.

    Thanks,

    I've used Bioperl a good bit, but I haven't used the Bio::Tree modules at all. I would definitely post some code showing what you've tried, and also think about asking for help on the Bioperl Discussion Mailing List.
