EBI Submission via Qiita

  1. Upload sample information and preparation information with their required fields for amplicon sequencing
  2. Link appropriate sequence files
  3. Run split libraries, trimming, then deblur or closed reference commands
  • Note: when using closed reference make sure you're using Greengenes for 16S [7]<reference7>, Silva for 18S [8]<reference8> , and UNITE for ITS [9]<reference9>

Qiita allows users to deposit their study, sample, experiment and sequence data to the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA), which is the permanent data repository of the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI). Submitting to this repository will provide you with a unique identifier for your study, which is generally a requirement for publications. Your study will be housed with all other Qiita submissions and so we require adherence to the MiXs standard.

EBI/ENA requires a given set of column fields to describe your samples and experiments which can be found on the Knight Lab website under "MetaData Template" and "Prep Template". Without these, Qiita Admins will not be able to submit your data to EBI. If you want to submit your data or need help send an email to qiita.help@gmail.com. Help will include advice on additional fields to add to ensure MiXs compliance.

Note that submissions are time consuming and need full collaboration from the user. Do not wait until the last minute to request help. In general, the best time to request a submission is when you are writing your paper. Remember that the data can be submitted to EBI and can be kept private and simply make public when the paper is accepted. Note that EBI/ENA takes up to 15 days to change the status from private to public, so consider this when submitting data and your manuscript.

Note

For convenience Qiita allows you to upload a QIIME mapping file to process your data. However, the QIIME mapping file, in general, doesn't have all the EBI/ENA fields. Thus, you will need to update your information files (sample or preparation) via the update option. To simplify this process, you can download the system generated files and add/modify these fields for each file.

EBI-ENA NULL values vocabulary

We support the following values: not applicable, not collected, not provided, restricted access.

For the latest definitions and explanation visit the EBI/ENA Missing value reporting.

Warning

Column names in your information files cannot be named as a Postgres reserved word. For example, a column cannot be named CONDITION, but could instead be named DISEASE_CONDITION. For a full list of these reserved words, see this link.

Required Sample Information Fields for EBI submission

These are the columns required for successfully submit your data to EBI: To successfully submit your data to EBI, view the required columns listed on the sample information spread sheet Knight Lab website under "MetaData Template". Without these columns you will not be able to submit to EBI.

Required Prep Information Fields for EBI submission

To successfully submit your data to EBI, view the required columns listed on the preparation information spread sheet Knight Lab website under "Prep Template". Without these columns you will not be able to submit to EBI.

For all valid values for instrument_model per platform, view the values in the table below:
