rbiom

rbiom is designed for microbiome researchers, providing visualizations and statistical analyses from Biological Observation Matrix (BIOM) files.

Installation

The latest stable version can be installed from CRAN.

install.packages('rbiom')

The development version is available on GitHub.

install.packages('pak')
pak::pak('cmmr/rbiom')

Usage

Import and rarefy abundance counts.

library(rbiom)

infile <- system.file(package = 'rbiom', 'extdata', 'hmp50.bz2')
biom   <- rarefy(infile)

Explore associations with metadata.

bdiv_ord_plot(biom, stat.by = 'Body Site', facet.by = 'Sex')

adiv_boxplot(biom, x = 'Sex', adiv = c('otu', 'shan'), stat.by = 'Body Site')

subset(biom, `Body Site` == 'Buccal mucosa') %>% 
  taxa_corrplot('Age', taxa = 2, layers = 'ptc', fit = 'lm', test = 'emtrends')

Summarize counts by taxonomic rank.

taxa_heatmap(biom, taxa = 10, tracks = c('body', 'age'))

taxa_stacked(biom, rank = 'Phylum')

taxa_table(biom, 'Phylum')
