## Introduction

PathoStat is a R shiny package, designed for performing Statistical Microbiome Analysis on metagenomics results from sequencing data samples. In particular, it supports analyses on the PathoScope generated report files.

The package includes:

- Data Summary and Filtering
- Relative Abundance plots (Stacked Bar Plot, Heatmap)
- Multiple species boxplot visualization
- Diversity analysis (Alpha and Beta diversity)
- Differential Expression (DEseq2, edgeR)
- Dimension Reduction (PCA, PCoA)
- Biomarker identification

## Installation

To begin, install Bioconductor and simply run the following to automatically install PathoStat and all the dependencies as follows.

    if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE))
        install.packages("BiocManager")
    BiocManager::install("PathoStat")

If you want to install the latest development version of PathoStat from Github, use devtools to install it as follows:

    require(devtools)
    install_github("mani2012/PathoStat", build_vignettes=TRUE)
