Barplot (Composition)
Used For
Comparisons of OTU or taxonomic group composition between one or more sample groups
This tool works best when every sample is subsampled to the same depth
Visualization Parameters
Taxonomic Level
The taxonomic level to aggregate the OTUs at. The OTUs will be grouped together (by summing the OTU values) at the selected taxonomic level before the analysis is applied.
Categorical Variable
Create comparative sample groups based on categorical variables uploaded in the metadata file.
Optionally create a categorical variable from a quantitative variable by using the Quantile Range feature on the Projects home page.
X-Axis
Determines how to lay out the data across the x-axis
Categorical Variable Each sample group forms its own stacked bar
Taxonomic Groups Each taxonomic group forms its own stacks bar
Barchart Type
Stacked Bar Each sample group forms its own stacked bar
Side-by-Side Each taxonomic group forms its own stacks bar
Interactive Elements
Hover over each bar to determine its label and relative abundance
