trans_nullmodel: Create trans_nullmodel object.

Description

This class is a wrapper for a series of null model and phylogeny related approaches, including the mantel correlogram analysis of phylogenetic signal, betaNTI, betaNRI and RCbray calculations; see Stegen et al. (2013) <10.1038/ismej.2013.93> and Liu et al. (2017) <doi:10.1038/s41598-017-17736-w>.

dataset

the object of microtable Class.

filter_thres

default 0; the relative abundance threshold.

taxa_number

default NULL; how many taxa you want to use, if set, filter_thres parameter invalid.

group

default NULL; which group column name in sample_table is selected.

select_group

default NULL; the group name, used following the group to filter samples.

env_cols

default NULL; number or name vector to select the environmental data in dataset$sample_table.

add_data

default NULL; provide environmental data table additionally.

complete_na

default FALSE; whether fill the NA in environmental data.

Returns

intermediate files in object.
