I am running Metaphlan2 (2.96.1) with the mpa_v296_CHOCOPhlAn database. When I analyzed the subsampled data (https://bitbucket.org/biobakery/biobakery/raw/tip/demos/biobakery_demos/data/metaphlan2/input/SRS014476-Supragingival_plaque.fasta.gz) provided in the tutorial with my installed software, I found the result is different from what given in the tutorial. Here I’m attaching my output file.
Please tell me why I am getting discrepancies in my result?
Hi,
the results showed in the tutorial were computed with a previous version of the MetaPhlAn2 database (v20_m200), while yours are obtained with a more recent and updated one.
The new database includes more species, compared to the previous one, so this is the reason of why more species are now present.
Hi fbeghini!!!
Can I use this output profiled by this database (mpa_v296_CHOCOPhlAn_201901) as input for Humann2?
I am using MetaPhlAn version 2.96.1 (02 Feb 2020)
I am new with Metaphlan. I am trying to follow the tutorial of metaphlan2 at bitbucket, but when I ran the command: metaphlan2.py SRS014476-Supragingival_plaque.fasta.gz --input_type fasta > SRS014476-Supragingival_plaque_profile.txt

It is working with the updated version MetaPhlAn2 2.8. I am running it on google colab. How long it usually takes to complete the run of a sample in the tutorial (it is taking quite long for me)? And what is the message when it is done?
It depends on how many threads have you specified, it can take up to one hour.
Nothing is prompted when the profiling is finished, you’ll have back your shell
Sorry for many questions! I am trying to re-generate the heatmap and cladogram from the tutorial of MetaPhlan2, but I could not install hclust2 and GraPhlAn either from biobakery or directly from source.
I also tried with metaphlan_hclust_heatmap.py from the Metaphlan 2.8, but it showed:
metaphlan_hclust_heatmap.py is a older version of hclust2 and was not updated anymore, which problems have you encountered while installing hclust2 and/or graphlan? hclust2 is also available on bioconda, you can install it with conda install -c bioconda hclust2
Hi @fbeghini,
I follow the tutorial on https://bitbucket.org/biobakery/biobakery/wiki/metaphlan2, I don’t understand why I could not install hclust2 either via bioconda or biobakery. Even I tried to download it but the link also has error.
Here is the error message when I installed it with bioconda or biobakery:
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done

Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.

I am having a problem with hclust2 too. I installed it via Conda and it finishes the installation apparently without problems. I then run the commands as in the Metaphlan tutorial (mentioned above) and nothing happens, when I call hclust2 from the terminal it says that it is not an instance. When I open anaconda and search for it, it is there. I reinstalled again and this time around it says “The condensed distance matrix must contain only finite values” I will do a google search to try to solve the issue. Is this an hclust2 issue, or a data issue? Any pointers would help. I am new to this. Thanks in advance.
