Silva v132 eukaryotic 18S non-redundant database formatted for DADA2

This file is derived from the Silva v132 eukaryotic SSU database. This database has been curated correcting and completing the taxonomy, removing redundant sequences and leaving a single sequence per species (the longest). The database consists of 26367 sequences. 29337 sequences from eukaryotic organisms, 20 from bacteria and 10 from archaea. Sequences are identified down to species level. This file is designed specifically for use in the classification of eukaryotic 18S sequencing data.
