EMBOSS can search a database by organism, but reads the sequence (in 
most programs) or the whole entry (entret)

... but I am looking into ways to parse out more detail, including 
organism, citation, and features. The database definition would have a 
list of fields that can be retrieved, and a program like (for example) 
entret could check the fields and let you choose the ones you need.

For now, you can run entret and look for the organism in the text.

Hope this helps,
