Hello everyone,

I am working on LEfSE, using data derived from qiime2 analysis (OTUs & numerical and categorical metadata in a number of samples and Iam trying to plot using lefse-plot_res.py without success. I ran the following commands but didn’t manage to obtain a plot… I am trying hard to fix issues mentioned in the output of the 3rd command and I would be thankful if help me do so!

My data is in this format

$ lefse-format_input.py collapse.table_FGF.txt tax-otu-table-form.txt -c 1 -u 2 -o 1000000

$ run_lefse.py tax-otu-table-form.txt tax-otu-table-result.txt

Terminal output: Number of significantly discriminative features: 16 ( 16 ) before internal wilcoxon Number of discriminative features with abs LDA score > 2.0 : 16

$ lefse-plot_res.py tax-otu-table-result.txt tax-otu-table-diffabund.pdf

Terminal output:
