Metabarcoding analyses (using FROGS and Phyloseq)This course offers an introduction to metabarcoding analyses at two different levels/steps: bioinformatics with FROGS pipeline in the Galaxy environment, biostatistics with PhyloSeq R package. This includes preprocessing, clustering and OTU picking, taxonomic assignation, estimation of diversity, visualization of statistics results. |
Prerequisites
Galaxy, R knowledge, Linux
Program
- Introduction to metagenomics and metabarcoding
- Pre-processing, Clustering, taxonomic affiliation (FROGS)
- Handling and visualizing OTU table using (FROGSSATS and PhyloSeq R package (PhyloSeq)
Learning objectives
- Manipulate tools available for metabarcoding analysis
- Study sample diversity by using NGS and post-NGS analysis tools
- Visualize diversity metrics in metabarcoding approach
