Bio::DB::MeSH(3)      User Contributed Perl Documentation     Bio::DB::MeSH(3)

NAME
       Bio::DB::MeSH - Term retrieval from a Web MeSH database

SYNOPSIS
	my $mesh = Bio::DB::MeSH->new();
	my $term = $mesh->get_exact_term('Butter');
	print $term->description;

DESCRIPTION
       This class retrieves a term from the Medical Subject Headings database
       by the National Library of Medicine of USA.  See
       <http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/meshhome.html>.

       This class implements Bio::SimpleAnalysisI and wraps its methods under
       get_exact_term.

       By default, web access uses WWW::Mechanize, but in its absense falls
       back to bioperl module Bio::WebAgent which is a subclass of
       LWP::UserAgent. If not even that is not installed, it uses
       Bio::Root::HTTPget.
