Examples

otu_tab1 <- matrix(
c(2, 4, 3, 1, 5, 7),
nrow=3, ncol=2)
otu_tab2 <- matrix(
 c(3, 5, 1, 3, 5, 8),
 nrow=2, ncol=3)
rownames(otu_tab1) <- c("otu1","otu2","otu3")
colnames(otu_tab1) <- c("sample1","sample2")
rownames(otu_tab2) <- c("otu3","otu4")
colnames(otu_tab2) <- c("sample3","sample4","sample5")

otu_tabs <- list(otu_tab1, otu_tab2)
