Alternative to Bio.Entrez EFetch for downloading full genome sequences from NCBI
<p>My goal is to download full metazoan genome sequences from NCBI. I have a list of unique ID numbers for the genome sequences I need. I planned to use the Bio.Entrez module EFetch to download the data but learned today via the Nov 2, 2011 release notes (<a href="http://1.usa.gov/1TA5osg" rel="nofollow">http://1.usa.gov/1TA5osg</a>) that EFetch does not support the 'Genome' database. Can anyone suggest an alternative package/module or some other way around this? Thank you in advance!      </p>
