mergeReplicates {Repitools} | R Documentation |
A lane of next generation sequencing data can be stored as a GRanges
object. Sometimes, a GRangesList
of various lanes can have experimental
replicates. This function allows the merging of such elements.
## S4 method for signature 'GRangesList' mergeReplicates(reads, types, verbose = TRUE)
reads |

A vector the same length as |

Whether to print the progess of processing. |
The experiment type that each element of the merged list is of, is stored in the first element of the metadata list.
A GRangesList
with one element per experiment type.
