phylostratr

Predict and explore the age of genes using phylostratigraphic methods.

Installation

You can install from GitHub with:

{r github-installation, eval=FALSE} library(devtools) install_github("arendsee/phylostratr")

Dependencies

• R packages from CRAN (see DESCRIPTION)
• Biostrings from Bioconductor, install with devtools::install_bioc("Biostrings")
• NCBI BLAST+ - blastp (the protein BLAST command) must be in PATH. You can tell if blastp is properly installed by calling blastp -help from the command line.
