## Introduction

PathoStat is a R shiny package, designed for performing 
Statistical Microbiome Analysis on metagenomics results 
from sequencing data samples. In particular, it supports 
analyses on the PathoScope generated report files.

The package includes:

* Data Summary and Filtering 
* Relative Abundance plots (Stacked Bar Plot, Heatmap)
* Multiple species boxplot visualization
* Diversity analysis (Alpha and Beta diversity)
* Differential Expression (DEseq2, edgeR)
* Dimension Reduction (PCA, PCoA)
* Biomarker identification
