Hi Deepak, The data file is formatted as input for QIIME, with the md5sum for the sequence and assigned taxonomy. We will be adding an entry in the MG-RAST documentation regarding the use of these files, till then you can check out the QIIME documentation: http://qiime.sourceforge.net/tutorials/tutorial.html Regards, Mark D'Souza -- for the MG-RAST team [email protected] http://metagenomics.anl.gov/ If you need to respond to this email please address it to the mailing-list [email protected] On Jul 18, 2011, at 11:13 AM, Deepak Sharma wrote:
Hi Mark, I hope you are doing great. I have a small question regarding the QIIME report feature in MGRAST. MGRAST website doesn't give much information about the QIIME feature like how to use the file and what the two files means. Could you give me some information about how *data and *metadata can be used by QIIME?
Thanks
