#' Lowest Taxonomic Level for each OTU
#'
#' This function takes in a phyloseq object and adds a column in the tax_table with the lowest taxonomic level for each OTU/ASV.
#'
#'
#' @param phyloseq Input phyloseq object
# @param combine.genus.species Combine Genus and species (Default = T)
# @param disambiguation Keep only the first entry for multiple taxa possibilites (Default = F)
