Field name

Description

ASV

Unique ASV identifier

OTU

Unique identifier for the OTU which the ASV belongs to

pseudophylum

Unique identifier for the phylum-level cluster the ASV belongs to

pseudospecies

Unique identifier for the species-level cluster the ASV belongs to

sh_id

Unique identifier for the Unite species hypothesis (SH) of the best match to the ASV

dist

Sequence dissimilarity between the ASV and the best match. 0.0 = all bases identical, 1.0 = all bases different.

Kingdom of the best matching sequence, as given in Unite

phylum

Phylum of the best matching sequence, as given in Unite

class

Class of the best matching sequence, as given in Unite

order

Order of the best matching sequence, as given in Unite

family

Family of the best matching sequence, as given in Unite

genus

species

Species of the best matching sequence, as given in Unite

  1. All amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) that could not be assigned to a fungal phylum, but which belong to a pseudophylum classified as Fungi, are included. These sequences are also represented as OTUs in the main OTU table and taxonomy. For each ASV, the closest matching species hypothesis (SH) in Unite is given, along with the classification of that sequence in Unite.
