version 1.99.9 (last updated 2018-04-02) + This version is in prepration for the version 2.0 + The MgDb-class definition was been redefined. + To reduce memory usage the and sequence data is now stored in the SQLite file along with the taxonomy data. + The mgFeatures-class now extends the DataFrame-class instead of the AnnotatedDataFrame-class so that mgFeatures can be used to define the rowData slot in a summarizedExperiment-class object. + The vignettes have been revised and new vignettes were added providing examples for working with the new class definitions. + Along with the new class definitions we have annotation packages for the three major 16S rRNA databases, SILVA, RDP, and Greengenes. + Greengenes version 13.8 85% similarity OTUs database is now included in the package. version 1.6.0 (last update 2017-04-14) + Bioc release cleaned up documentation and debugging MgDb class definition with tree slot version 1.5.1 (last update 2017-03-20) + editing documentation version 1.1.3 (2016-10-01) + replaced msd16S with mock community dataset for examples + changed tree mgFeatures and MgDb slot from class phylo to phyloOrNULL version 1.1.2: (2016-03-26) + Added mgFeatures class - this class replaces metagenomeAnnotation in the 16S workflow, and contains database information for a user provided list of database sequence ids. A new metagenomeAnnotation-class will be added to the package when a suitable R native 16S taxonomic classificaiton method is available. + new `aggregate_taxa` function for aggregating MRexperiment objects to user defined taxonomic level, aggretation of count data is performed using sums by dafault, users can pass any column wise matrix operation. version 0.0.0.9 : (2015-09-14) + Pre-Release Bioconductor
