Did you know that BLAST sequence similarity searches can be limited
and analyzed by taxonomic criteria?
For example, typing 'Bacteria' into the organism field in the Advanced
Blast program will limit a BLAST search to only bacterial
sequences. In addition, you can view BLAST results sorted by organism
and other taxonomic criteria by following the 'Taxonomy reports' link.
These are direct links to some of the organisms commonly used in molecular research projects:
