rich: An R Package to Analyse Species Richness

The paper describes rich, a new R package to perform species richness estimation and comparison. Species richness is the simplest surrogate for the more complex concept of species biodiversity. It is relatively easy to assess although estimations strongly depend on sampling intensity with the consequence that richness estimations should be standardized to perform valid comparisons. The R packag...

MiRComb: An R Package to Analyse miRNA-mRNA Interactions. Examples across Five Digestive Cancers

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs that regulate the expression of target mRNAs by specific binding on the mRNA 3'UTR and promoting mRNA degradation in the majority of cases. It is often of interest to know the specific targets of a miRNA in order to study them in a particular disease context. In that sense, some databases have been designed to predict potential miRNA-mRNA interactions based on ...

An R package to analyse LC/MS metabolomic data: MAIT (Metabolite Automatic Identification Toolkit)

UNLABELLED Current tools for liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry for metabolomic data cover a limited number of processing steps, whereas online tools are hard to use in a programmable fashion. This article introduces the Metabolite Automatic Identification Toolkit (MAIT) package, which makes it possible for users to perform metabolomic end-to-end liquid chromatography and mass spectrom...

Phybase: an R package for species tree analysis

MOTIVATION Phybase is an R package for phylogenetic analysis using species trees. It provides functions to read, write, manipulate, simulate, estimate, summarize and plot species trees, which contain not only the topology and branch lengths but also population sizes. AVAILABILITY The Phybase package is available at the R repository. The manual and supporting materials including source code, s...
