Hello!  
How your biom file was created? Could you share with me a biom table and a source file, from which biom was created (if applicable).

Thank you @timanix for your reply.  
Actually i find the problem myself, biom format version was depend on the version of python used for creating a conda environment. I have used lower version of python and then installed biom-format package. then all probelm solved.
