[Bioperl-l] how to get the information of Strand = Plus / Plus from blastn report by bioperl.

[kakchingtabam pawankumar sharma]

Hi,
             Using Bio::SearchIO module I am parsing the following Blast result.
I have used the option- $hsp->strand('query').

But I cannot get detail of alignment.

I need to know if my hit is forward (Strand = Plus / Plus)
or reverse ( Strand = Plus / Minus)...
 Can anyone help me to get report as Plus or Minus for query  or hit.

thanks in advanced.

With regards,
Pawan
