    PCA plots based on nucleotide word frequency (k-mer) of assembled contigs &/or raw re

    Which utility package (preferable web-based) is available to generate PCA plots based on nucleotide word frequency (k-mer) of assembled contigs &/or raw reads ??? I found R bit tricky and tough to handle...so any thing other than R or R with some really helpful guide is preferable...

    FactoMineR does a lot of great PCA things, and can fairly easily produce nice plots:



    According to the FactoMineR main page, there's also now Factoshiny, which provides a dynamic, interactive way to explore your data with FactoMineR:

    You're posting in a bioinformatics forum, and rubbishing the free software swiss army statistics chainsaw of R. Saying "R is too confusing, can you tell me how I can do [statistics] without using R" is unlikely to give you good results.

      No not at all rubbishing..sorry if I misunderstood...i just said as i am not a bioinformatician so i found it tough to use..anyway thanks for your suggestion

        Since this is one of the top hits while googling, thought I would leave here that CheckM with the tetra_pca command will do this:

          16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
          by SEQadmin2




          NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

          Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
          by SEQadmin2



          Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

          Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
