  • Using DeSeq2 in R or Qiime to examine taxonomic rank other than OTU level

    Hello,

    I am trying to follow the example given here https://github.com/joey711/phyloseq/issues/683, using DeSeq2 to examine differential abundance at Genus rather than OTU level, however When I import my data into R studio doing the following I only have one taxonomic rank (Kingdom).

    map<-import_qiime_sample_data(file.choose())
    tree<-read_tree(file.choose())
    biomfile<-import_biom(file.choose(),parseFunction=parse_taxonomy_greengenes)
    physeq<-merge_phyloseq(biomfile,tree,map)

    physeq
    phyloseq-class experiment-level object
    otu_table() OTU Table: [ 2206 taxa and 66 samples ]
    sample_data() Sample Data: [ 66 samples by 11 sample variables ]
    tax_table() Taxonomy Table: [ 2206 taxa by 1 taxonomic ranks ]
    phy_tree() Phylogenetic Tree: [ 2206 tips and 2204 internal nodes ]

    Previously I had imported my data using the following code and I see 7 taxonomic ranks, however when I try to use this data with the code supplied by joey711 (link above) I get the error below

    otufile=("otu_table_m1000_minus_cyano_chloro_json_w_consensuslineage.txt")
    mapfile=("Mapping_file_LS.txt")
    trefile=("rep_set_tree.tre")
    qiimedata = import_qiime(otufile, mapfile, trefile)
    qiimedata

    phyloseq-class experiment-level object
    otu_table() OTU Table: [ 2206 taxa and 66 samples ]
    sample_data() Sample Data: [ 66 samples by 11 sample variables ]
    tax_table() Taxonomy Table: [ 2206 taxa by 7 taxonomic ranks ]
    phy_tree() Phylogenetic Tree: [ 2206 tips and 2204 internal nodes ]

    GenusFiltered <- subset_taxa(qiimedata, Genus != "NA" & Species == "NA")

    Error in rownames<-(*tmp*, value = c("sp1", "sp0")) :
    length of 'dimnames' [1] not equal to array extent

    The package version of phyloseq that I am using in R studio is 1.19.1
    Any help to fix this would be much appreciated

    Secondly does anyone know if there is way to use the DeSeq2 function in Qiime to compare higher taxonomic ranks, eg Genus? I am aware that I would have to take the results with a pinch of salt.

    If there isnt a way is there a way in which I can use Qiime to do permutation based tests, other than at OTU level?
    Cheers,
    Sarah

    Just in case anyone else has this problem, there is a pretty simple fix that worked for me (took me a while to find!!!!)

    You can agglomerate taxa of the same type, so for me I did this:

    (x1 <- tax_glom(qiimedata, taxrank="Family"))

    ntaxa(qiimedata); ntaxa(x1)

    qiimedata is my data matrix and then I can simply choose which rank to agglomerate to, then I run my DeSeq2 analysis as usual.

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
