Warning
This site has been replaced by the new QIIME 2 “amplicon distribution” documentation, as of the 2025.4 release of QIIME 2. You can still access the content from the “old docs” here for the QIIME 2 2024.10 and earlier releases, but we recommend that you transition to the new documentation at https://amplicon-docs.qiime2.org. Content on this site is no longer updated and may be out of date.
Are you looking for:
the QIIME 2 homepage? That’s https://qiime2.org.
learning resources for microbiome marker gene (i.e., amplicon) analysis? See the QIIME 2 amplicon distribution documentation.
learning resources for microbiome metagenome analysis? See the MOSHPIT documentation.
installation instructions, plugins, books, videos, workshops, or resources? See the QIIME 2 Library.
general help? See the QIIME 2 Forum.
Old content beyond this point… 👴👵

Pipelines¶
- evaluate-classifications: Interactively evaluate taxonomic classification accuracy.
- evaluate-cross-validate: Evaluate DNA sequence reference database via cross-validated taxonomic classification.
- evaluate-fit-classifier: Evaluate and train naive Bayes classifier on reference sequences.
- evaluate-taxonomy: Compute summary statistics on taxonomy artifact(s).
- get-silva-data: Download, parse, and import SILVA database.
- trim-alignment: Trim alignment based on provided primers or specific positions.
Methods¶
- cull-seqs: Removes sequences that contain at least the specified number of degenerate bases and/or homopolymers of a given length.
- degap-seqs: Remove gaps from DNA sequence alignments.
- dereplicate: Dereplicate features with matching sequences and taxonomies.
- edit-taxonomy: Edit taxonomy strings with find and replace terms.
- extract-seq-segments: Use reference sequences to extract shorter matching sequence segments from longer sequences based on a user-defined ‘perc-identity’ value.
- filter-seqs-length: Filter sequences by length.
- filter-seqs-length-by-taxon: Filter sequences by length and taxonomic group.
- filter-taxa: Filter taxonomy by list of IDs or search criteria.
- get-bv-brc-genome-features: Fetch genome features from BV-BRC.
- get-bv-brc-genomes: Get genome sequences from the BV-BRC database.
- get-bv-brc-metadata: Fetch BV-BCR metadata.

- orient-seqs: Orient input sequences by comparison against reference.
- parse-silva-taxonomy: Generates a SILVA fixed-rank taxonomy.
- reverse-transcribe: Reverse transcribe RNA to DNA sequences.
- subsample-fasta: Subsample an indicated number of sequences from a FASTA file.
