Analysis tools include: Hierarchy Browser, Classifier, Probe Match, FunGene, MlxS GoogleSheets, Library Compare, Sequence Match, RDPipeline, Aligner, Tree Builder and RDP Open Source.
There are tutorials available for each analysis tool included in the RDP suite.
Classifier now provides gene copy number adjustment for 16S gene sequences. The 16S gene copy number data is provided by rrnDB website.
FunGene is a functional gene pipeline and repository. Genes that have functional roles in antibiotic resistance, for example, can be found/deposited here.
MlxS Google Sheet helps you analyze/manage your metadata and choose an appropriate marker gene for analysis.
