chimera_removal_vs: Search for a list of sequence in an object to remove chimera...

In MiscMetabar: Miscellaneous Functions for Metabarcoding Analysis

Search for a list of sequence in an object to remove chimera taxa using vsearch

Description

Use the VSEARCH software.

Usage

chimera_removal_vs(object, type = "Discard_only_chim", clean_pq = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

object	(required) A phyloseq-class object or one of dada, derep, data.frame or list coercible to sequences table using the function dada2::makeSequenceTable()
type	(default "Discard_only_chim"). The type define the type of filtering. "Discard_only_chim" will only discard taxa classify as chimera by vsearch "Select_only_non_chim" will only select taxa classify as non-chimera by vsearch(after filtering taxa based on their sequence length by the parameter min_seq_length from the chimera_detection_vs() function) "Select_only_chim" will only select taxa classify as chimera by vsearch (after filtering taxa based on their sequence length by the parameter min_seq_length from the chimera_detection_vs() function)
clean_pq	(logical; default FALSE) If TRUE, return the phyloseq object after cleaning using the default parameter of clean_pq() function.
...	Other arguments passed on to chimera_detection_vs() function

Details

This function is mainly a wrapper of the work of others. Please make vsearch.

Value

• I/ a sequences tables if object is of class dada, derep, data.frame or list.

• II/ a phyloseq object without (or with if type = 'Select_only_chim') chimeric taxa
