Thanks for the report. To be clear, are you using the entire nt database? BLCA is designed to deal with marker genes instead of a generic database. You will need to use a particularly family of marker genes as the database, so that the database entries are in similar length. Otherwise, the subsequent multiple sequence alignment is not reliable. If you are using the entire nt database, the multiple sequence alignment may be a problem.
if you can make your database and query available for us to download, we can take a look.
Hi, could you check if the blastn file you showed was correct? In your blastn output, the query ID was "haplo_51122", but in the result file the ID was "seq_01"? I was wondering if they refer to the same thing?

Yes it's correct, I changed it as I copied it in. I will send on the database soon. It's large. The blast searches are quite accurate and I guess the final assignment will be based on the bit score ranks. Not sure how the covid sequences appears!
That's wired. Could you also send the sequence of this one entry, and I'll take a look.
Hi @YJulyXing @qunfengdong See here the link to the data: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-WGhTt9wesYZbpY80I-A44QZkCtmtxte?usp=sharing
wget https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/db/nt.{00..47}.tar.gz
)Thanks for taking the time to look into this issue.
Also, we don't think that using the entire nt database would work. You need to extract a family of maker genes. If the gene is inside a genome, it would mess up the multiple sequence alignment.

- nt.ACC.taxonomy file of the entire nt database ( wget https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/db/nt.{00..47}.tar.gz)
- test (the sequence - should be Strombus gigas)
- test.blastn (the resulting blastn file generated)
- test.blca.out (clustalo)
- test1.blca.out (muscle)
Thanks for taking the time to look into this issue.

Ok I understand that but these are all the same species albeit some are whole mitogenomes but the return a different species from the blast hits?
@shump2 @YJulyXing We should have made it more clear in our documentation. For BLCA, we expect that the database sequences are of similar length: that is, the sequences are from a gene family. For example, all the 16S gene sequences have more or length the similar lengths (not identical, but similar). If the database sequences have very dramatically different length, the multiple sequence alignment may become a problem. In your case, if some of the sequences correspond to the whole mitogenomes, but others correspond to a particular gene in the mitogenomes, they are of very different lengths, which may create problems for reliable multiple sequence alignments.
What is your blast database? Are you using the default blast database (16SMicrobial)?

@shump2 do you mind providing your blast database? @YJulyXing needs to check if your database entries really have the correct taxa ID in the NCBI taxa database you used.
Hi, I have created a db (nt.ACC.taxonomy ~82 million records) using an updated version of the entire nt NCBI database. Some sequence queries fail to assign to the correct species despite the blastn hits being correct. For example: if I search one sequence against the nt database with the custom taxonomy file. The blastn returns 11 hits but the alignment returns a very strange result to COVID. I am not sure where to begin in resolving this and if there are any known issues? Any assistance here would be much appreciated.
