Host range overall call #31

Closed jrober84 closed 4 years ago

There should be an overall host range call which uses the NCBI taxonomy and the literature evidence to produce an overall call. I think that the overall call should be whichever of the two is less restrictive. Biologically it makes sense to set the maximum resolution to the family level since it is unlikely to have plasmids that can only replicate in a single species.

MOB-suite v. 3.0.0 now provides an overall call for host-range
