Problem while loading BIOM file in STAMP

04-20-2017, 04:54 AM

Hello,

When I am loading my BIOM file in STAMP everything goes well and I am able to generate .spf file but when I want to open this file I get an error message:

"Field to correctly parse lines: 1298"

So I have chacked and it looks like this (I'm showing lines 1296 -1299)

k__Bacteria p__Firmicutes c__Clostridia o__Clostridiales f__ g__ s__ 463289 7.0 3.0 35.0 233.0

k__Bacteria p__Firmicutes c__Clostridia o__Clostridiales f__ g__ s__ 228232 2.0 14.0 3.0 0.0

k__Bacteria p__Bacteroidetes c__Bacteroidia o__Bacteroidales f__S24-7 g__ s__ New.ReferenceOTU78 0.0 3.0 0.0 1.0

k__Bacteria p__Firmicutes c__Clostridia o__Clostridiales f__ g__ s__ New.ReferenceOTU79 1.0 2.0 4.0 0.0

I see that starting from the line 1298 in "Observation Ids" collumn I am getting New.ReferenceOTUxxx and I have this parameter to the end of my file. Before line 1298 I have Observation Ids in numbers.

What can I do or change? Maybe I should change something during my Qiime analysis?

From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data

by SEQadmin2

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.

The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

Environmental Genomics in the Age of NGS: From Microbes to Conservation Strategies

by SEQadmin2

Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.

Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...
