sample_taxa

treeforall hackathon project: Given the request for a modestly sized tree for a large taxon T, support various useful ways to sample from taxon T, including (1) a random sample of species from T, (2) the species in T that have a genome in NCBI genomes, and (3) the top N species in T in terms of the number of occurrence records in iDigBio.

Targets chosen by the group

1. choose N species randomly from T
2. choose those species from N that have property A, e.g., has NCBI genome
3. choose the top N species from T by relevance metric, e.g., counts in iDigBio
