Description

Parses an RDP reference FASTA file.

Usage

parse_rdp(input = NULL, file = NULL, include_seqs = TRUE,
  add_species = FALSE)

Arguments

input

(character) One of the following:

A character vector of sequences

See the example below for what this looks like. The parser read_fasta produces output like this.

A list of character vectors

Each vector should have one base per element.

A "DNAbin" object

This is the result of parsers like read.FASTA.

A list of "SeqFastadna" objects

This is the result of parsers like read.fasta.

Either "input" or "file" must be supplied but not both.

file

The path to a FASTA file containing sequences to use. Either "input" or "file" must be supplied but not both.

include_seqs

(logical of length 1) If TRUE, include sequences in the output object.

add_species

(logical of length 1) If TRUE, add the species information to the taxonomy. In this database, the species name often contains other information as well.

Value

taxmap

Details

The input file has a format like:
