This package provides a tool that implements the clustering algorithms from mothur (Schloss PD et al. (2009) <doi:10.1128/AEM.01541-09>). clustur make use of the cluster() and make.shared() command from mothur'. Our cluster() function has five different algorithms implemented: OptiClust', furthest', nearest', average', and weighted'. OptiClust is an optimized clustering method for Operational Taxonomic Units, and you can learn more here, (Westcott SL, Schloss PD (2017) <doi:10.1128/mspheredirect.00073-17>). The make.shared() command is always applied at the end of the clustering command. This functionality allows us to generate and create clustering and abundance data efficiently.
