FUNGuild: Best practice for OTUs with multiple guilds (no primary “|”), and handling “Plant Pathogen” priority?

[Nicholas_Bokulich]

Hi @sgc92 ,
It is not an answer to the question, but there is now a QIIME 2 plugin for fungal trait prediction based on the Fungal Traits database (which is newer/based on FUNguild):

q2-fungal-traits: a QIIME 2 plugin for trait-based analysis of fungal microbiome data

Hi everyone, We are excited to share a new plugin, q2-fungal-traits, for automated integration of fungal taxonomy derived from marker-gene amplicon (e.g., ITS, other regions) or shotgun metagenomic sequencing data with ecological and functional trait information compiled from published fungal trait datasets. The plugin provides an annotate action that generates a metadata table containing fungal trait annotations and spore size estimates based on fungal taxonomic assignments. These annotations…

(I think the answer to the question is that there is no answer, as I also see this question asked and unanswered on the FUNguild github)

I hope that helps!
