GenePiper, a Graphical User Interface Tool for Microbiome Sequence Data Mining

Abstract

Amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene is commonly performed for the assessment and comparison of microbiomes. Here, we introduce GenePiper, an open-source R Shiny application that provides an easy-to-use interface, a wide range of analytical methods, and optimized graphical outputs for offline microbiome data analyses.Amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene is commonly performed for the assessment and comparison of microbiomes.
