Publishable data from Qiime2

@Toan,
Yes. Any statistical method used in QIIME 2 is a valid statistical method, published and widely used by others. So be sure to cite each individual method you use in QIIME 2, in addition to QIIME 2, to properly credit the work of others! See here for more details on discovering tools that should be cited for individual actions in QIIME 2:

Hi @scho73, Good question! See this post: https://forum.qiime2.org/t/citing-qiime-2-in-publication/1559/3?u=nicholas_bokulich In addition to the citation information described in that post, you can also view references that you should cite for any individual artifact that you have generated (citations are shown for the last command used to generate that artifact, so you will need to do this for each artifact that you use in your analysis). To do this: View an artifact in https://view.qi…

Plots are highly subjective... I find most QIIME 2 plots are easily adjusted in adobe illustrator and other image editing tools to prepare publication-ready plots. But this does not cover all possible plotting modalities! So many users (myself included) will generate finished plots in R or other software.
