GeneMates: an R package for Detecting Horizontal Gene Co-transfer between Bacteria Using Gene-gene Associations Controlled for Population Structure

Rahul Nayak — Sat, 07 Mar 2020 05:52:20 -0600

GeneMates is an R package implementing a network approach to identify horizontal gene co-transfer (HGcoT) between bacteria using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data. It is particularly useful for investigating intra-species HGcoT, where presence-absence status of acquired genes is usually confounded by bacterial population structure due to clonal reproduction.

CRBHits: From Conditional Reciprocal Best Hits to Codon Alignments and Ka/Ks in R

Shruti Paniwala — Wed, 11 Nov 2020 23:06:03 -0600

CRBHits is a coding sequence (CDS) analysis pipeline in R (R Core Team, 2019). It reimplements the Conditional Reciprocal Best Hit (CRBH) algorithm crb-blast and covers all necessary steps from sequence similarity searches, codon alignments to Ka/Ks calculations and synteny. The new R package targets ecology, population and evolutionary biologists working in the field of comparative genomics.

Modern Statistics with R

LEGE — Thu, 22 Aug 2024 04:44:06 -0500

This is the online version of the second edition of Modern Statistics with R. It is free to use, and always will be. Printed copies are available from CRC Press.

Live online courses on statistics with R based on this book, led by the author, are offered regularly; see this page for more information and dates.

The past decades have transformed the world of statistical data analysis, with new methods, new types of data, and new computational tools. The aim of Modern Statistics with R is to introduce you to key parts of the modern statistical toolkit. It teaches you:

Data wrangling - importing, formatting, reshaping, merging, and filtering data in R.
Exploratory data analysis - using visualisations and multivariate techniques to explore datasets.
Statistical inference - modern methods for testing hypotheses and computing confidence intervals.
Predictive modelling - regression models and machine learning methods for prediction, classification, and forecasting.
Simulation - using simulation techniques for sample size computations and evaluations of statistical methods.
Ethics in statistics - ethical issues and good statistical practice.
R programming - writing code that is fast, readable, and (hopefully!) free from bugs.

The book includes plenty of examples and more than 200 exercises with worked solutions. The datasets used for the examples and the exercises can be downloaded here.

R and Bioconductor Tutorial

Jitendra Narayan — Fri, 23 Aug 2013 08:23:59 -0500

This tutorial is intended to introduce users quickly to the basics of R, focusing on a few common tasks that biologists need to perform some basic analysis: load a table, plot some graphs, and perform some basic statistics. More extensive tutorials can be found on the project website and via bioconductor (not covered here).

You can add more tutorial links in comments if found new pages.

dcGOR

Martin Jones — Sat, 08 Nov 2014 14:54:28 -0600

An R package for analysing ontologies and protein domain annotations has been published in PLoS Computational Biology (http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1003929). The package is distributed as part of CRAN (http://cran.r-project.org/package=dcGOR), and also at GitHub for version control.

The dedicated website is available in http://supfam.org/dcGOR, from which several demos are also provided:

1. Analysing SCOP domains: http://supfam.org/dcGOR/demo-Fang.html

2. Analysing Pfam domains: http://supfam.org/dcGOR/demo-Basu.html

R for Microsoft Excel

Jitendra Narayan — Wed, 18 Feb 2015 00:43:27 -0600

If you currently use a spreadsheet like Microsoft Excel for data analysis, you might be interested in taking a look at this tutorial on how to transition from Excel to R by Tony Ojeda. The tutorial explains how to use R functions in place of Excel formulas, including tools like =AVERAGE and =VLOOKUP. For the most part, it uses modern R packages to keep the R code clear and concise.

You'll likely still be using Excel as a data source, though, so you'll also want to check out this guide to importing data from Excel to R from MilanoR.
