elemental Q regarding input seq format 'seqtab.nochim.robj' #6

Closed junhuili closed 7 years ago

junhuili commented 7 years ago

I am wondering whether the input seq format must be 'robj'. If so, how can I convert 'fasta' to 'robf'?

grab study seqs

load(file = "genome_prediction/seqtab.nochim.robj")

Hi junhili, .robj is required for the pipeline as written, but I am happy to write some example code for you to use a fasta. Were the sequences in the .fasta created by DADA2? If not, do you have a separate file that contains the number of times each sequence in the .fasta occurs in each sample? What software have you used up to this point?

Hi Vince, many thanks for your prompt comments. I just tried to proceed the seq using DADA2, it works. Thank you!
