selbal is an R package for selection of balances in microbiome compositional data. As described in Rivera-Pinto et al. 2018 Balances: a new perspective for microbiome analysis https://msystems.asm.org/content/3/4/e00053-18, selbal implements a forward-selection method for the identification of two groups of taxa whose relative abundance, or balance, is associated with the response variable of interest.
