Summary: The ModuLand plug-in provides Cytoscape users an algorithm determining a.) extensively overlapping network modules; b.) several hierarchical layers of modules, where meta-nodes of the higher hierarchical layer represent modules of the lower layer; c.) module cores predicting the function of the whole module; and d.) key nodes bridging two or multiple modules in complex networks. The plug-in was written in C++, has a detailed JAVA-based graphical interface with various colouring options, can be installed as a single file and can run on Windows, Linux, or Mac OS. We demonstrate its use on protein structure and metabolic networks. Availability: The plug-in and its user guide can be downloaded freely from: http://linkgroup.hu/modules.php
