Unfiltered 18S MOTU Dataset

This dataset contains all of the 18S MOTUs obtained after the bioinformatics pipeline described in the manuscript. For each MOTU, there is taxonomic assignment information from two algorithms – SAP and Geneious BLAST – and the number of reads per MOTU per sample. Field descriptions are:
"OTU_ID" = unique MOTU identifier
"SAP" = taxonomic assignment from the SAP algorithm
"MetazoanPhylum_SAP" = Metazoan phylum assigned by SAP
"Level1_SAP"= higher level SAP assignment (e.g., Metazoan, Fungi, etc.)
"Geneious Accession" = the NCBI accession of the best BLAST hit
"Geneious1"= higher level BLAST assignment (e.g., Metazoan, Fungi, etc.)
“MetazoanPhylum_Geneious”= metazoan phylum of best BLAST hit
“Geneious2”…”Geneious6”= progressively lower-level taxonomic assignment of best BLAST hit
“Geneious_coverage” = Percent coverage of best BLAST hit
“Geneious_identity” = Percent identity of best BLAST hit
“Geneious_eval” = E-value of best BLAST hit
“Level1” = final higher-level categorization of the MOTU
“MetazoanPhylum” = final Metazoan phylum of the MOTU
