title: 'phylobar: Interactive construction of stacked barplots using hierarchies'
version: 0.99.12
doi: 10.1101/2025.11.05.686662
abstract: The phylobar package supports interactive visualization of microbiome data
  by allowing a stacked barplot to be constructed using a guiding taxonomic or phylogenetic
  hierarchy. The package provides a strategy for collapsing and expanding the hierarchy
  to different levels of resolution and then for interactively "painting" the stacked
  barplot by placing the mouse over different subtrees. This makes it possible to
  interactively test different color palettes at different resolution and identify
  taxonomic groups with interesting variation before settling on a final stacked barplot.
  One advantage of the approach is that multiple levels of taxonomic resolution can
  be compared at once within the same view.
