blast output for FASTA (aligned sequences) to get organism name

Hi,

I want to get the organism name from blast output (FASTA (aligned sequences)) for the specific protein.

I am a beginner in python. Please help me to write the script for getting organism name in biopython.

Is there anyone who can help me?

Hey did you succeed in doing this? i'd like to see that script. I need to do exactly this for a school project but I have no idea how to do it.

Regards,

Jorn.

Given you have setup taxdb, you can use the sscinames tag in tabular output of ≥ blast 2.2.28+.
