RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Metagenomic surveys of human microbiota are becoming increasingly widespread in academic research as well as in food and pharmaceutical industries and clinical context. Intuitive tools for investigating experimental data are of high interest to researchers. RESULTS: Knomics-Biota is a web-based resource for exploratory analysis of human gut metagenomes. Users can generate and share analytical reports corresponding to common experimental schemes (like case-control study or paired comparison). Interactive visualizations and statistical analysis are provided in association with the external factors and in the context of thousands of publicly available datasets arranged into thematic collections. The web-service is available at https://biota.knomics.ru. CONCLUSIONS: Knomics-Biota web service is a comprehensive tool for interactive metagenomic data analysis.
