How to extract OTU count information for the selected list of OTU in R

Hi,

Could you please suggest to me in R, how I can extract count information across all samples for the selected list of OTU ID from the OTU table where the first column is OTU ID.

I have identified some differential OTU abundance and now for heatmap, I need the count information for these OTU across all samples.

r

You cannot (and should not) ask for direct answers. Show us what you have tried so far. Also, don't assume that everyone will know what an OTU table is ; rather provide a snapshot of how the table looks like. for example you can provide

summary(OTU_TABLE) or str(OTU_TABLE) or head(OTU_TABLE)

thanks, sorry for that: I do have OTU Id in first column and sample count like this, I need to extract information for based on selected OTU ids.

> head( mymensingh2)
                                          leaf-1.S68     leaf-19.S79
