Results: Here we present poRe, a package for R that enables users to manipulate, organize, summarize and visualize MinION nanopore sequencing data. As a package for R, poRe has been tested on Windows, Linux and MacOSX. Crucially, the Windows version allows users to analyse MinION data on the Windows laptop attached to the device.

Availability and implementation: poRe is released as a package for R at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rpore/ . A tutorial and further information are available at https://sourceforge.net/p/rpore/wiki/Home/
