dge_merge_list: Merge a list of digital gene expression matrices.
In maehrlab/thymusatlastools: Tools for analysis of single-cell transcriptomic data

Merge a list of digital gene expression matrices.

1	dge_merge_list(dge_list, allow_barcode_overlap = F)

`dge_list`	list of matrices with genes as rows and cell barcodes as columns.
`allow_barcode_overlap`	Set this to TRUE if matching barcodes in different inputs refer to the same cells, as in a resequencing of a library. Set this to FALSE (default) if matching barcodes would only occur by coincidence, as in merging of different replicates for joint analysis.

'dge_merge_list' converts the digital gene expression matrices to dataframes with genes as columns, merges them, then converts the result back, all without disturbing the gene labels. A gene will be included if it appears in any of the datasets. If a gene appears in one dataset but not another, zeroes will be filled in for missing expression levels.
