    Command for vlookup function

    Hello experts,

    I have large text files that need to be arranged using a function like excel's vlookup. I have been playing with awk command but didn't really come up with a solution. Could anyone please help me out? Below are my datasets and expected output. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    <File 1>
    contig-100_1 5
    contig-100_30 10
    contig-100_50 20
    contig-100_40 15
    contig-100_60 25

    <File 2>
    contig-100_1 "Bacteria"
    contig-100_50 "Bacteria A"
    contig-100_60 "Bacteria A, Fungi B"

    <Expected output>
    contig-100_1 5 Bacteria
    contig-100_30 10 NA
    contig-100_50 20 Bacteria A
    contig-100_40 15 NA
    contig-100_60 25 Bacteria A, Fungi B

      16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
      by SEQadmin2





      NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...
