HorseFluRaw: Raw dataset from the Newmarket 2003 equine influenza outbreak

Description

This dataset is a list containing the following components:

• dna: a DNAbin object alignment of FASTA sequences obtained by cloning and Sanger sequencing (sequenceID, nucleotide sequence); sequence labels contain sequence identifiers, individual IDs, and dates, separated by "_".
• individuals: a dataframe which contains all static information relating to a horse (individualID), training yard the horse belongs to (yardID), date of birth, sex, latitude, longitude.
• records: a list of dataframes containing information about the dates of first and last vaccinations, and shedding data (viral copy number) for some samples.
• dna.info: an indication of the samples from which the DNA sequences were obtained.
