Is the Qiime2 feature table compatible with FUNGuild?

Hi @ngonza27,
The example feature table you gave looks a little odd, but I think more or less what is described in this tutorial:

Exporting and modifying BIOM tables (e.g. adding taxonomy annotations)

Creating a TSV BIOM table The following is based on a post by @gregcaporaso. $ qiime tools export table.qza --output-dir ./ $ biom convert -i feature-table.biom -o feature-table.tsv --to-tsv $ biom head -i feature-table.tsv # Constructed from biom file #OTU ID L1S105 L1S140 L1S208 L1S257 L1S281 4b5eeb300368260019c1fbc7a3c718fc 2222.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 fe30ff0f71a38a39cf1717ec2be3a2fc 5.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 d29fe3c70564fc0f69f2c03e0d1e5561 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 868528ca947bc57b69ffdf83e6b73bae 0.0 227…

Otherwise you may want to get in touch with the FUNGuild developers to troubleshoot, since they would know their format best.

@ngonza27

I’ve found papers that used Qiime OTU tables for their input into FUNGuild, but none mentioning Qiime2.

Note: qiime 1 used biom format in all but the earliest releases... what you describe (a txt document containing an OTU table) is what became known as "classic" OTU tables in qiime 1. The tutorial link above describes how to make a "classic" OTU table.

Good luck!
