This unique book addresses the statistical modelling and analysis of
microbiome data using cutting-edge R software. It includes real-world
data from the authors' research and from the public domain, and
discusses the implementation of R for data analysis step by step. The
data and R computer programs are publicly available, allowing readers to
replicate the model development and data analysis presented in each
chapter, so that these new methods can be readily applied in their own
research.
The book also discusses recent developments in statistical modelling and
data analysis in microbiome research, as well as the latest advances in
next-generation sequencing and big data in methodological development
and applications. This timely book will greatly benefit all readers
involved in microbiome, ecology and microarray data analyses, as well as
other fields of research.
