Usage: qiime diversity pcoa-biplot [OPTIONS]

  Project features into a principal coordinates matrix. The features used
  should be the features used to compute the distance matrix. It is
  recommended that these variables be normalized in cases of dimensionally
  heterogeneous physical variables.

Inputs:
  --i-pcoa ARTIFACT      The PCoA where the features will be projected onto.
    PCoAResults                                                     [required]
  --i-features ARTIFACT FeatureTable[RelativeFrequency]
                         Variables to project onto the PCoA matrix  [required]
Outputs:
  --o-biplot ARTIFACT PCoAResults % Properties('biplot')
                         The resulting PCoA matrix.                 [required]
Miscellaneous:
  --output-dir PATH      Output unspecified results to a directory
  --verbose / --quiet    Display verbose output to stdout and/or stderr
                         during execution of this action. Or silence output if
                         execution is successful (silence is golden).
  --example-data PATH    Write example data and exit.
  --citations            Show citations and exit.
  --use-cache DIRECTORY  Specify the cache to be used for the intermediate
                         work of this action. If not provided, the default
                         cache under $TMP/qiime2/ will be used.
                         IMPORTANT FOR HPC USERS: If you are on an HPC system
                         and are using parallel execution it is important to
                         set this to a location that is globally accessible to
                         all nodes in the cluster.
  --help                 Show this message and exit.

Principal Coordinate Analysis Biplot

Project features into a principal coordinates matrix. The features used
should be the features used to compute the distance matrix. It is
recommended that these variables be normalized in cases of dimensionally
heterogeneous physical variables.

Parameters
----------
pcoa : PCoAResults
    The PCoA where the features will be projected onto.
features : FeatureTable[RelativeFrequency]
    Variables to project onto the PCoA matrix

Returns
-------
biplot : PCoAResults % Properties('biplot')
    The resulting PCoA matrix.
