Metacoder: An R package for visualization and manipulation of community taxonomic diversity data
Fig 1
Metacoder has an intuitive and easy to use syntax.
The code in this example analysis parses the taxonomic data associated with sequences from the Ribosomal Database Project [9] 16S training set, filters and subsamples the data by sequence and taxon characteristics, conducts digital PCR, and displays the results as a heat tree. All functions in bold are from the metacoder package. Note how columns and functions in the taxmap object (green box) can be referenced within functions as if they were independent variables.
