Phylogenetic Organization of Metagenomic Signals
Overview
Code to identify functional enrichments across diverse taxa in phylogenetic tree, particularly where these taxa differ in abundance across samples in a non-random pattern. The motivation for this approach is to identify microbial functions encoded by diverse taxa that are at higher abundance in certain samples compared to others, which could indicate that such functions are broadly adaptive under certain conditions.

Langille, Elhanan Borenstein (2022) doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btac655.
