Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Constructor for the 'OGP-class' object.

1	gplast.preprocess(cogdata, sspids=NULL, cogids=NULL, verbose=TRUE)

`cogdata`	a data frame or matrix with COG's data.
`sspids`	an optional data frame with species annotation. Alternatively, it can be a character vector with species IDs.
`cogids`	an optional data frame with COG's annotation. Alternatively, it can be a character vector with COG IDs.
`verbose`	a single logical value specifying to display detailed messages (when verbose=TRUE) or not (when verbose=FALSE).

This function creates an OGP-class object and checks the consistency of the input data for the evolutionary plasticity pipeline. Internally, the function counts the number of orthologs for each species in a given OG and computes the orthodist matrix.

A preprocessed object of class 'OGP'.
