TI  - The Bio* toolkits--a brief overview.
PG  - 296-302
AB  - Bioinformatics research is often difficult to do with commercial software. The
      Open Source BioPerl, BioPython and Biojava projects provide toolkits with
      multiple functionality that make it easier to create customised pipelines or
      analysis. This review briefly compares the quirks of the underlying languages and
      the functionality, documentation, utility and relative advantages of the Bio
      counterparts, particularly from the point of view of the beginning biologist
      programmer.
