This is the approach I would like to take.
I have 5 mitochondrial dna sequences. I would like to run a loop (I'm not sure how to do this) to see which one is most similar to the mtdna of It will print this result.
Tympanuchus cupido cupido is the bird I'm trying to compare the other mtdna to.
Then, I would like to swap the mtdna of the Heath Hen to the closest relative.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
# we are going to run a loop the mtdn subspecies of the prairie hen to
+ Tympanuchus cupido cupido to see which one is most similar percentwi
+se. Then we will select the closest relative and the nucelotides with
+ heath hen mtdna.
# What do I do next?
