Format of PR2 reference flat files

List of files are provided for each release

Each version has a 3 number code: version_x.y.z, e.g. 4.12.0

Important note : All files are in UNIX format (end of lines are indicated Line Feed-LF only). Please see at the bottom of the file how to converts the files to Windows format (end of lines are CR+LF).

Files to assign metabarcodes

Qiime or Mothur

#### USEARCH or VSEARCH * pr2_version_x.y.z_SSU_UTAX.fasta.gz contains one fasta file with the accession number of the sequence and its full taxonomy on the description line in the UTAX format. It is suitable to use with USEARCH and VSEARCH.

DECIPHER

  • pr2_version_x.y.z_SSU.decipher.trained.rds is a DECIPHER training set using 3 iterations and a maximum of 20 sequences per species (LearnTaxa) that can be used with the DECIPHER IDTaxa function to assign metabarcodes. Use the readRDS() function of R to load the file.

File for Phylogeny

  • pr2_version_x.y.z_SSU_taxo_long.fasta.gz contains one fasta file with the accession number of the sequence, the name of the sequence and its full taxonomy on the description line. It is suitable to build a local database for BLAST search. If you want to donwload only a specific taxonomic group we recommend that you use the Web interface.

Converting files from UNIX to Windows format

All files are in UNIX format (end of lines are indicated Line Feed-LF only). File can be converted to Windows format (end of lines are CR+LF):

  • Install Notepad++

  • Open the files to convert (e.g. for mothur the .fasta and .tax files)

  • Convert the end of lines

  • Now the file should like the image below (red arrow)
  • Save the file under the same name by clicking on the disk icon (blue arrow)
