r-phylotax

Community

Combines taxonomic assignments made with different methods or databases using a phylogenetic tree. Clades within the tree are assigned to a taxon if the assignment is consistent with at least one result for all of the members of the clade, except the members that do not have any assignments at all. This resolves conflict between different methods, while also adding assignments to unknown sequences which are nested in an identified clade. The package also includes helper functions to assign taxonomy using several methods, and compile the results into a uniform format.
