Dataset Open Access
These two combined bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA gene sequence databases were collated from various sources and formatted for the purpose of using the "assignTaxonomy" command within the DADA2 pipeline.
The formatting to DADA2 format of the databases was done using a locally written python 2.7 script. The script takes as input a taxonomy .txt file and a fasta file as provided by the core databases creators and then these two files are matched according to a unique sequence identifier available in both files. Then it outputs a fasta file with all 7 taxonomy ranks separated by ";" as required for DADA2 compatibility. Additionally, we have concatenated the unique sequence ID be it NCBI/RDP or GTDB ID to the species entry. We see this as an important QC step to highlight the issues/confidence associated with short read taxonomy assignment at the more finer rank levels.
