I hope someone can help me. I'm trying to create a classifier for my thesis, but I'm not exactly sure which files to download from the Silva website. I'm following the tutorials from QIIME2 (Training feature classifiers with q2-feature-classifier — QIIME 2 2024.2.0 documentation). I searched the forum, but the names they give don't match. Perhaps the file names have changed, so it's a bit confusing. Are those the correct files?. What I understand is that I need the file containing the sequences and another one containing the taxonomic references to run the following script:
The process of building a reference sequence database can be complicated! So there is a QIIME 2 plugin (RESCRIPt) to automate this process, including from SILVA. Please see this tutorial:
The sequences, taxonomy, and pre-trained classifiers prepared using the RESCRIPt plugin as described in this tutorial are also available on the QIIME 2 website data resources page: Data resources — QIIME 2 2024.2.0 documentation
seguiré ese tutorial, perdón por intentar simplificar el proceso
