Next a list of clade III and V parasitic nematodes i.e. the Ascarids, Ancylostomatids, etc were obtained – these downloaded as a fasta file.
Next this fasta file had the titles of the sequences changed to ‘sham’ titles to non-descript accession numbers e.g. Unidentified nematode 18S ribosomal RNA, partial sequence,

# Simplify the headers of your database fasta file
$ awk '{if($0~/^>/){print $1} else {print $0}}' Final_Trich_Strongy_with_Sham_reads_v2.fasta > Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2.fasta
# Make a text file of all the accession numbers in the database fasta file
$ awk '{if ($1~/^>/) print substr($1,2)}' Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2.fasta > Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2_accession_ids.txt
# Create a mapping table of each accession to its taxa id - takes about 10 minutes as it has to read each of the 300 million lines nucl_gb.accession2taxid

# Make the blast database using the database fasta file for example:
$ makeblastdb -in Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2.fasta -parse_seqids -blastdb_version 5 -taxid_map Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2_tax_map.txt -title "Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2_db" -out Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2_db -dbtype nucl

Final database files produced = 10. For example Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2_db.ndb, Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2_db.nhr, Trich_Strongy_with_unidentified_v2_db.nin

These can be used by NanoCLUST e.g. in the command
