Chromer: Programmatic access to Chromosome Counts Database

This package is a R based interface to the Chromosome Counts Database (CCDB). Currently, this consists of just one function chrom_counts, which queries the database using the taxa supplied. The function summarize_counts cleans and processes the data.
