Hello to all!
I need to have some clarification regarding how to set the ancom test on my samples.
I have 60 samples divided into two groups (treated and control) and undergoing to two different diets. For each subject included in the study, samples were taken from three different body sites (rumen, feces and intestine). Now I need to identify features that are differentially abundant across two experimental groups (treated and control).
can someone help me to understand how to perform ancom analysis?
In particular how should I filter my data? my p-where is Diet?
qiime feature-table filter-samples \
--i-table table.qza \
--m-metadata-file sample-metadata.tsv \
--p-where Diet ???
--o-filtered-table diet-table.qza
qiime composition ancom
--i-table comp-diet-table.qza
--m-metadata-file metadata.tsv
--m-metadata-category Subject ID ???
--o-visualization ancom-Subject.qzv
Thanks in advance for your help.
