Introduction to microbiomeSeq

This package is developed to enhance the available statistical analysis procedures in R and providing more informative visualisation of analysis results for microbial communities obtained from 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. It has been designed under the supervision of Dr. Umer Zeeshan Ijaz (primary) and Prof. William T. Sloan (secondary) by Alfred Ssekagiri as part of his Msc Bioinformatics project. Source code is available at http://www.github.com/umerijaz/microbiomeSeq. Here we present a tutorial with minimum working examples to demonstrate usage and dependencies.
