I have posted here a few tutorials for different types of analysis of microbial communities. For each of these of these tutorials there is a detailed explanation created with Rmd (see below).

• Introduction to R
• Manipulating and plotting data
• Plot data from culture experiments (cell abundance vs. time)
• Visualization and analysis of metabarcode data with phyloseq

Please post any question or issues here : https://github.com/vaulot/R_tutorials/issues
