I am analysing microbial communities from different sources regarding cheesemaking (milk, starter culture, cheeses) and I would like to know which is the best way to correlate these microbial communities with environmental samples such as latitude, longitude, altitude, etc.
I am currently using Qiime and phyloseq, but I want to give a try with Vegan. Anyone could help me with some functions from this software regarding my main question?
Thanks a lot!
Cheers,
Felipe
