MetaPhlAn3 gives unclassified viruses:

Microbial community profiling MetaPhlAn

Hi
Dear @fbeghini

  • MetaPhlAn3 gives unclassified viruses:
    After adding the --add_viruses flag I got some percentage of viral species but how, for most of the viral result, does it classifiy directly to the species level and not the genus,family,order,class as they remain unclassifed?
    This is what I got:
    k__Viruses|p__Viruses_unclassified|c__Viruses_unclassified|o__Caudovirales|f__Siphoviridae|g__Siphoviridae_unclassified|s__Microbacterium_phage_Min1 10239|||28883|10699||446529 0.61931
