Importing ASV abundance tables

You can import files containing amplicon sequence variant counts in tabular format (.xls/.xlsx/.csv) as abundance tables using Standard import:

1. Click on the Import () icon in the Toolbar and choose Standard Import, or go to File | Import () | Standard Import ().
2. Select files to import by clicking on the Add files button. Alternatively, specify folders containing files to import by clicking on the Add folders button.
3. Choose Force import as type and select ASV abundance table (.xls/.xlsx/.csv).
4. Click on Finish.
