Mark by reference

ARB_NT/Species/Mark by reference

Allows to mark all species referred to in the content of a field.

Select whether to check all or marked species.

Enter the name of a field containing references.

Choose whether

• to abort if the field is missing or
• to continue w/o warning

Enter an ACI expression (see ´ARB Command Interpreter (ACI)´) to postprocess the field content. The result must be a reference or reference-list (see above).

The default ACI is '/[0-9.]+[%]*://'. This works with the information written by ´Nearest relatives of LISTED´ if score information has been added.

For the 'used_rels' field written by the fast-aligner (see ´The integrated aligners´) or by sina (see ´Graph Aligner (SINA)´) you might use '/:[0-9]+//'.

Predefined configurations for these two use-cases are available using the config manager button.

Below the ACI there are 3 lines showing

• the ´Selected species´
• the content of the specified field
• the result after processing it through the ACI

Use the result line to check whether the specified ACI does generate a valid ID or list of IDs.

Choose whether

• to abort if an unknown reference is found or
• to continue w/o warning

Click 'Mark referenced' to mark all species which are referenced by the examined set of species.
