Taxonomic Annotations for ASVs Used in Microbial Analysis

1.7 MB Excel spreadsheet provides taxonomic annotations for candidate Amplicon Sequence Variants (ASVs). The table is divided into sections for 16S, 18S-V4, and 18S-V9 genetic markers. Authored by Erin V. Satterthwaite and last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Assign taxonomic labels to ASVs based on the provided annotations
• Compare microbial community profiles across different genetic markers (16S, 18S-V4, 18S-V9)
• Validate taxonomic assignments from bioinformatics pipelines using this reference annotation table

Strengths

• Data is structured in a 1.7 MB Excel spreadsheet, facilitating manual review
• Annotations are separated for three distinct genetic markers (16S, 18S-V4, 18S-V9), allowing for targeted analysis

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
