How to add taxonomy to feature-table.qza from open-reference-otu-picking

Hi @MMC_northS!

Please see this post for details on how to annotate a BIOM table with taxonomy as metadata:

Is there any way to summarize taxa plot by category?

Hi @m-ocejo! We currently don’t have that functionality in QIIME 2’s taxa barplots. I created an issue to track the addition of that feature. Note that you can sort the samples by a metadata category, so that samples from the same category will be grouped together (but each bar will still represent a single sample). If you’re interested in using QIIME 1 to produce these grouped barplots, you can export your BIOM table and taxonomy data from your .qza files. In order to use summarize_taxa_throug…

@MMC_northS

in that case, what’s happen with the sequences called like “new sequences” (because is open-reference-analyses)?

From the docs:

The new reference sequences. This can be used for subsequent runs of open-reference clustering for consistent definitions of features across open-reference feature tables.

Hope that helps!
