Reproduction and exploration of data from Kozich et al (2013)

write.paper

You can generate the final document by "simply" entering the following from a terminal on a Mac OSX or Linux computer:

make write.paper

But that's probably a really bad idea. The data contained within represents 13 MiSeq sequencing runs and would probably take several weeks to run on a single node of a computer. Unfortuantely, you probably need to go through an individually build the targets of the Makefile on multiple nodes. If you have suggestions on how to improve the Makefile to make it more automated for people (i.e. me) using a pbs job scheduler, please let me know.

Dependencies...

• mothur v.1.34.0
• R packages:
  • knitr
  • vegan
