Overview

About

Maintained by Ulrich Wittelsbuerger11 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides very fast access to whole genome, population scale variation data from VCF files and sequence data from FASTA-formatted files. It also reads in alignments from FASTA, Phylip, MAF and other file formats. Provides easy-to-use interfaces to genome annotation from UCSC and Bioconductor and gene ontology data from AmiGO and is capable to read, modify and write PLINK .PED-format pedigree files.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/WhopGenome/WhopGenome_0.9.7.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "WhopGenome_0.9.7.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.9.7) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
