Description of the 16/18S rRNA seqs Hypercard stack, by JWBrown
--------------------------------------------------------------

        16/18S rRNA seqs ("16/18S") is a Hypercard stack for the Apple
Macintosh series microcomputer.  The stack is designed for use by
scientists (molecular biologists in particular) for the storage & retrieval of
non-aligned small subunit ribosomal RNA sequences.  The current version of
16/18S comes with 228 16/18S rRNA sequences from all three phylogenetic
Kingdoms.  rRNA sequences are accessed through a series of linked
phylogenetic trees; clicking at any terminal node of a tree will either take
you one level higher (or lower) in the overall tree, or will present a menu of
choices of rRNA sequences from the phylogenetic group represented by that
node.   16/18S will run on any Macintosh computer that can run Hypercard.
Hypercard 1.1 (or later) required.
