Usage

abundance(x, tax_lev = "Taxa", unassigned = FALSE)

Arguments

x	Result of aggregate_taxa().
tax_lev	Taxonomic level at which the calculation has to be performed.
unassigned	Does unassigned taxa need to be taken into account? If yes set unassigned to TRUE, otherwise FALSE.

Details

If unassigned is set to TRUE abundances are equal among taxonomic levels.
