title: 'clustur: Clustering'
version: 0.1.1
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.clustur
abstract: 'A tool that implements the clustering algorithms from ''mothur'' (Schloss
  PD et al. (2009) <https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.01541-09>). ''clustur'' make use of
  the cluster() and make.shared() command from ''mothur''. Our cluster() function
  has five different algorithms implemented: ''OptiClust'', ''furthest'', ''nearest'',
  ''average'', and ''weighted''. ''OptiClust'' is an optimized clustering method for
  Operational Taxonomic Units, and you can learn more here, (Westcott SL, Schloss
  PD (2017) <https://doi.org/10.1128/mspheredirect.00073-17>). The make.shared() command
  is always applied at the end of the clustering command. This functionality allows
  us to generate and create clustering and abundance data efficiently.'
