Hi everyone,
I am trying to use Entrez.esearch to find the ids I can then use to fetch the genbank records.
For that purpose I went looking for biopython tutorial for more information in how to do this, and I get the following information:
>>> handle = Entrez.esearch(db="nucleotide",term="Cypripedioideae[Orgn] AND matK[Gene]")
>>> record = Entrez.read(handle)
>>> record["Count"]
'25'
>>> record["IdList"]
['186972394', '186972384', '186972382', '186972378', ..., '61585484']
Unfortunately when I try to follow this instructions I found out that I don't have any Entrez.read
to parse the output of Entrez.esearch. Is this a new option in the last release?
Thanks in advance,
Bruno Santos
