App/otu

OTUs are the core objects in the database. They represent taxonomic concepts of any level or rank. Most other objects are attached or referenced through an OTU.

By default all the OTUs for the current project are listed. In most cases you will not want to see this list, but rather a grouped-list. You can create as many OTU groups as you want in the Groups + Templates tab. When there select a group as a default and when you return to the OTU tab you’ll only see those group members. At present the OTU default group is reset every time you enter a project.

There are various possible names for OTUs. These are color-coded in the list as follows:

Taxon Name Otu Name Manuscript Name Matrix Name (Containing Taxon name)
