[Bioperl-l] Bio::Tree::Node set root_node

[Filipe Garrett]

Hi all,

I have a Bio::Tree object:
((GA11747-PA_dpse:0,(Obp8a-PA_dmel,SIM12665-PA_dsim:0):0):0);
where the initial branch only has one descendant.

How can I eliminate the first branch?
Can I just re-set the descendant as root node?

Thanks in advance,

Best regards,

FG
