Get Consensus Taxonomy from Taxonomic Strings

Description

Gets the consensus taxonomy from a vector of taxonomic strings.

Usage

get_consensus_taxonomy(taxonomies, full_names = TRUE, delimiter = ";")

Arguments

taxonomies	A character vector of taxonomic strings.
full_names	Logical. If TRUE (the default), then the full consensus taxonomy is returned. If FALSE, then only the lowest taxonomic level of the consensus taxonomy is returned.
delimiter	A character string of the delimiter between taxonomic levels in the input taxonomies. The default is ";".

Value

A character string containing the taxonomy agreed upon by all input taxonomies. If the input taxonomies are not the same at any taxonomic level, then NA is returned.

Examples

get_consensus_taxonomy(taxonomies=
   c("Eukaryota;Chordata;Amphibia;Caudata;Ambystomatidae;Ambystoma;Ambystoma_mavortium",
     "Eukaryota;Chordata;Amphibia;Anura;Bufonidae;Anaxyrus;Anaxyrus_boreas",
     "Eukaryota;Chordata;Amphibia;Anura;Ranidae;Rana;Rana_luteiventris"),
                       full_names=TRUE,
                       delimiter=";")
