Make your data count: Process, publish and reuse your metabarcoding output in SBDI

Presentation slides from a seminar by the Swedish Biodiversity Data Infrastructure (SBDI) to discover tools for converting amplicon sequence reads into species occurrence data that contribute to global biodiversity knowledge. We introduce SBDI and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) platforms, and demonstrate SBDI resources for metabarcoding data, including a guide for the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) submission, a pipeline for denoising reads into Amplicon Sequence Variants (ASVs), a web interface for submitting and accessing ASV data in SBDI, and an R package for processing downloaded data into ASV table format.
