v2.6.0

• Input validator can now be called from within R using gbt_checkinput function
• Perl scripts called by R functions now included in package for installation (no need to manually specify path)
• General cleanup and tidying of documentation, remove outdated files and functions
• (Fixed broken formatting in wiki)

gbtools 2.5.4

• "Fishing" for connected contigs using Fastg-formatted assembly graph is supported again, compatible with ouptut from SPAdes 3.6.2+ only. User can also choose number of iterations ("fishing depth") to recruit connected contigs.
• Bug fixes for plot legends, blob script, localization settings

gbtools 2.5.2

• New method for generating plot colors for taxonomic marker overlay. Each taxon is now assigned a weight, based on total coverage x length of the contigs belonging to that taxon, and only the highest-weighted taxa are given a color and included in legend. This prevents legend from being cluttered, and user can adjust the cutoff with markCutoff parameter.
• Specific taxa can now be highlighted in plot with highlightTaxon parameter
• Bug fix for temporary file generation in SSU extraction and blob annotation scripts.

gbtools 2.4.4

• Functions for comparing and merging sets of multiple bins are now available.
• New example data included for testing the tool
• Minor bug fixes and tweaks to default parameters for some functions

gbtools

Fix for various user-reported bugs

genome-bin-tools

Users can now add custom data to gbt objects with userAdd(). Numeric custom data can also be plotted; a userAxis= parameter has been added to the plot() method for gbt and gbtbin objects.

genome-bin-tools

Created new object classes gbt and gbtbin to replace genomestats, diffcovstats, genomestatsbin, and diffcovstatsbin classes. All coverage data from various samples for a single assembly are now stored together in the same object. This is more natural and easier for the user. Switching between plots of different sample coverages for the same assembly is much easier, and no fussing about with additional functions is necessary.

genome-bin-tools

Tools in R for interactive binning of metagenomes by differential coverage, marker gene, and GC% information.
