BuddySuite

BuddySuite is a collection of four related tools:
1. SeqBuddy is a tool to handle FASTA, GenBank, and NEXUS sequence file formats. SeqBuddy includes functions to manipulate and analyze sequence data using 50+ separate tool modules.
2. AlignBuddy: 30 separate tool modules to read, write, analyze, and manipulate PHYLIP, Stockholm, and NEXUS sequence alignment files.
3. PhyloBuddy: Consists of 18 tool modules to manage and manipulate phylogenetic trees in NEXUS, Newick, and NeXML formats.
4. DatabaseBuddy: Contains function to search NCBI, UniProt, and Ensembl databases. The DatabaseBuddy algorithms can sort and filter the search results.
