FeatureData[Taxonomy] format

Hi, I am using the latest version of QIIME and I am running into trouble when I try to use my Taxonomy Data to visualise the taxa-bar-plots. It does not seem to automatically divide the taxonomy into the different levels i.e. kingdom, phylum.

I used vsearch to obtain the taxonomy data and then imported it into qiime as a qza file.

I have attached a screenshot of what my data looks like as well as the bar plot output.


Hi!
Could you try to replace ',' with ';' before importing to Q2, I think Qiime2 is separating taxonomy by this symbol.

Thanks that worked!!

Just another question...do the OTU IDs in the taxonomy table need to be in the same order as the ones in the Feature Table (i.e. OTU table)??? Or is it enough that they match because their names match?

My guess is that you should be fine if names are matching, since I never encountered any errors in filtered tables, in which order will not match anyway.
