This is the readme file for the Qiime2 pipeline to use for the analysis of 16S amplicons for example! You can activate Qiime2 by the following command:
source activate qiime2-2018.2
All the fastq from all the samples are in 'manifest' files and the format of the manifest files can be found in Qiime2 webpage under importing data section.
qiime tools import --type 'SampleData[SequencesWithQuality]' --input-path samples_manifest.txt --output-path Piran_amp_27_03_2018.qza --source-format SingleEndFastqManifestPhred33
Here, we summarize the demultiplexed samples and their individual sequence counts and also to look at the sequence quality plot to choose parameters for trimming in the following steps.
qiime demux summarize --i-data Amp170209.demux.qza --o-visualization Amp170209.demux.qzv
Then, we can visialize the summary file in a web browser by:
qiime tools view Amp170209.demux.qzv
After the demultiplexing step, the quality control, 'ASV' selection, chimera checking and many other qulaity steps are dobe by the pipleline DADA2
along with extracting the representative sequnces and building a table for the representatives. All of this is done by just one command:
qiime dada2 denoise-single --i-demultiplexed-seqs Amp170209.demux.qza --p-trim-left 10 --p-trunc-len 245 --p-n-threads 5 --o-representative-sequences Amp170209.rep-seqs-dada2.qza --o-table Amp170209.table-dada2.qza
Note that the --p-trim-left 10
is to remove the forward primer and --p-trunc-len
is to remove the reverse primer and also based on how the quality of the sequences looked like from the previous step. Amp170209.rep-seqs-dada2.qza
contains the representative sequences and Amp170209.table-dada2.qza
contains their respective abundance.
We can visialize the different characteristics of the reprentstavive sequences and the table by the following commands:
qiime feature-table tabulate-seqs --i-data Amp170209.rep-seqs-dada2.qza --o-visualization Amp170209.rep-seqs-dada2.qzv
qiime feature-table summarize --i-table Amp170209.table-dada2.qza --o-visualization Amp170209.table-dada2.qzv --m-sample-metadata-file Comb_4ITruns_map.txt
qiime tools view Amp170209.table-dada2.qzv
qiime tools view Amp170209.rep-seqs-dada2.qzv
In case there are many sequencing runs using the same barcodes for different samples, the tables and the representative sequences can be mereged together.
Note: The parameters used above should be the same for all the runs
qiime feature-table merge-seq-data --i-data1 Amp161122.rep-seqs-dada2.qza --i-data2 Amp170531.rep-seqs-dada2.qza --o-merged-data merged_seq.qza
qiime feature-table merge --i-table1 Amp170531.table-dada2.qza --i-table2 Amp170602.table-dada2.qza --o-merged-table merged_table2.qza
Note: it is also to be noted that only two features can be merged togther once!
Now, we can classify the representative sequences to their respective taxonomic unit using the already existing reference sequences such as the SILVA database and CREST and so on.
qiime feature-classifier classify-consensus-vsearch --i-query All_Asg_16S_rep_seqs.qza --i-reference-reads ~/Files/Database/Qiime2/Silva_128_Q2/16S_SILVA128_99_otus.qza --i-reference-taxonomy ~/Files/Database/Qiime2/Silva_128_Q2/16S_SILVA128_99_taxa.qza --p-threads 5 --output-dir Silva_classified
qiime feature-classifier classify-consensus-vsearch --i-query All_Asg_16S_rep_seqs.qza --i-reference-reads ~/Files/Database/Qiime2/Crest_Q2/Crest_97_otus.qza --i-reference-taxonomy ~/Files/Database/Qiime2/Crest_Q2/Crest_97_taxa.qza --p-threads 5 --output-dir Crest_classified
The Qiime barplots can be plotted using the following commnad:
qiime taxa barplot --i-table ../All_Asg_16S_table.qza --i-taxonomy classification.qza --m-metadata-file ../Comb_4ITruns_map.txt --o-visualization silva_taxa-bar-plots.qzv
qiime tools export classification.qza --output-dir .
qiime tools export All_Asg_16S_table.qza --output-dir .
The classfication table has a name taxonomy.tsv
as an output with taxonomy for each ASV and the table out put is in biom format!
Here, we would combine the taxonomy classifications and the abundance table from the biom table to make Krona plots
biom convert -i All_Asg-table.biom -o All_Asg_asv_table.tab --to-tsv
krona_qiime.py ../taxonomy.tsv ../../All_Asg_asv_table.tab
The above biom
command will create a normal ASV abundance table. then, we combine the the taxonomic classification of the ASV to their abundance using my own krona_qiime.py
command. This will create text files for each sample in the analysis. then we would combine the text files to make the krona plots.
