WhopGenome 0.9.7

:: DESCRIPTION

WhopGenome is a package for R that provides high-speed access to Variant Call Format (VCF) files as e.g. published by the 1000 Genomes Project.. It also reads in alignments from FASTA, Phylip, MAF and other file formats. Provides easy-to-use interfaces to genome annotation from UCSC and Bioconductor and gene ontology data from AmiGO and is capable to read, modify and write PLINK .PED-format pedigree files.
