Problem with taxonomy

Welcome to the forum, @mosmasha!

This sounds like it may be an issue with the taxonomy classification step, unless if you were expecting 100% Clostridia.

  1. how did you classify your sequences taxonomically? (method, source of the reference/classifier, etc)
  2. how many sequences do you have per sample? Were there any upstream processing issues that might cause a problem?
  3. What were you expecting to see?
  4. Could you share your taxa-bar-plots.qzv so that we can take a look?

There are several topics regarding taxonomy errors listed inside the following topic, these might give you some ideas of what may have gone wrong:

Thanks!
