throat.meta

<p></p><p>It is part of a microbiome data set for studying the effect of
 smoking on  the upper respiratory tract microbiome. The original data 
set contains samples from both throat and  nose microbiomes, and 
from both body sides. This data set comes from the throat microbiome 
of left body side. It contains 60 subjects consisting of 32 nonsmokers
 and 28 smokers.

There is an increasing interest in investigating how the compositions of microbial communities are associated with human health and disease. In this package, we present a novel global testing method called aMiSPU, that is highly adaptive and thus high powered across various scenarios, alleviating the issue with the choice of a phylogenetic distance. Our simulations and real data analysis demonstrated that aMiSPU test was often more powerful than several competing methods while correctly controlling type I error rates.
