biomartr: Genomic Data Retrieval

Perform metagenomic data retrieval and functional annotation retrieval. In detail, this package aims to provide users with a standardized way to automate genome, proteome, coding sequence ('CDS'), 'GFF', and metagenome retrieval from 'NCBI' and 'ENSEMBL' (Yates et al. (2016) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkv1157>) databases. Furthermore, an interface to the 'BioMart' database (Smedley et al. (2009) <doi:10.1186/1471-2164-10-22>) allows users to retrieve functional annotation for genomic loci. Users can download entire databases such as 'NCBI RefSeq' (Pruitt et al. (2007) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkl842>), 'NCBI nr', 'NCBI nt' and 'NCBI Genbank' (Benson et al. (2013) <doi:10.1093/nar/gks1195>) as well as 'ENSEMBL' and 'ENSEMBLGENOMES' with only one command.
