Error code: DatasetGenerationCastError
Exception: DatasetGenerationCastError
Message: An error occurred while generating the dataset
All the data files must have the same columns, but at some point there are 7 new columns ({'sample_accession', 'antibiotic_concentration', 'plant_species', 'replicate', 'treatment_label', 'ena_title', 'concentration_mg_kg'}) and 2 missing columns ({'reverse-absolute-filepath', 'forward-absolute-filepath'}).
This happened while the csv dataset builder was generating data using

Soil Microbiome Responses to Antibiotic Contamination: A Dual-Marker Amplicon Analysis
Overview
This repository contains a fully reproducible computational pipeline for the analysis of soil microbial community responses to escalating antibiotic concentrations. The study employs a dual-marker amplicon sequencing approach, simultaneously profiling bacterial communities via the 16S rRNA gene (V3-V4 region) and fungal communities via the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS2), to characterize the taxonomic and ecological consequences of antibiotic contamination in agricultural soils planted with two crop species.
All raw sequencing data are publicly available from the European Nucleotide Archive under BioProject accession PRJEB95045.
Study Design
The experimental framework follows a fully balanced 4 x 2 factorial design comprising 48 biological samples per marker gene (96 libraries total). Soil samples were collected from pots planted with Spinacia oleracea (spinach) or Raphanus sativus (radish) and amended with a mixture of five antibiotics at four concentration levels. Six biological replicates were maintained per treatment group.
| Factor | Levels |
|---|---|
| Plant species | Spinacia oleracea (spinach), Raphanus sativus (radish) |
| Antibiotic concentration | 0 (c0), 0.1 (c0.1), 1.0 (c1), 10.0 (c10) mg/kg soil dw |
| Biological replicates | 6 per treatment combination |
| Sequencing platform | Illumina NextSeq 2000, 2 x 301 bp paired-end |
Analytical Pipeline
The complete analytical workflow was implemented in QIIME 2, with computationally intensive steps executed via standalone shell scripts to manage memory constraints. The pipeline is organized into two parallel tracks, one for each marker gene, each documented in a dedicated Jupyter notebook and supported by modular execution scripts.
16S rRNA Gene (Bacterial Profiling)
- Data Importation and Quality Assessment: Raw paired-end FASTQ files were imported using a fastq manifest and profiled for per-base sequence quality to empirically determine truncation parameters.
- Amplicon Sequence Variant (ASV) Inference: DADA2 was employed for denoising with the following empirically optimized parameters: forward reads truncated at 280 bp, reverse reads at 240 bp, with primer sequences removed by positional trimming (17 bp forward, 21 bp reverse). These parameters yield an effective overlap of approximately 22 bp for the V3-V4 insert, exceeding the 12 bp algorithmic minimum. Thread count was restricted to 2 to prevent out-of-memory failures on systems with 16 GB RAM.
- Taxonomic Classification: Taxonomic assignments were performed using a pre-trained Naive Bayes classifier against the SILVA 138.2 SSU NR99 reference database. Region-specific reference sequences (V3-V4, primers 341F/806R) were extracted via the RESCRIPt plugin to maximize classification accuracy.
- Phylogenetic Reconstruction: A prevalence filter (minimum 2 samples) was applied to remove transient singleton ASVs prior to multiple sequence alignment (MAFFT) and approximate maximum-likelihood tree inference (FastTree). This yielded a midpoint-rooted phylogenetic tree suitable for computing phylogenetically informed diversity metrics.
- Diversity and Statistical Analysis: Following contaminant excision (mitochondria and chloroplast sequences), core diversity metrics were computed at a rarefaction depth of 100,000 reads, retaining all 48 samples. Alpha diversity was assessed using Shannon entropy, Pielou evenness, observed features, and Faith phylogenetic diversity, with group significance evaluated via Kruskal-Wallis tests. Beta diversity was quantified using weighted and unweighted UniFrac, Bray-Curtis dissimilarity, and Jaccard distance, with treatment effects tested via PERMANOVA (999 permutations). Differential abundance analysis was performed at the genus level using ANCOM-BC.
ITS2 (Fungal Profiling)
- Primer Removal: Unlike the 16S pipeline, ITS primer sequences (ITS3ngs/ITS4ngs; Tedersoo et al., 2014) were removed using Cutadapt's adaptive alignment algorithm rather than positional trimming, as the conserved flanking regions exhibit length variation. The
--p-discard-untrimmedflag ensured that only reads containing a valid ITS primer pair were retained, effectively filtering non-target reads from the multiplexed library. - DADA2 Denoising: No fixed-length truncation was applied (
--p-trunc-len-f 0,--p-trunc-len-r 0) to preserve the natural length heterogeneity of the ITS2 region (~200 to 450 bp). Quality filtering relied exclusively on the maximum expected errors threshold (2.0). - Taxonomic Classification: ITS sequences were classified against the UNITE 10.0 reference database (release 2024-04-04, dynamic species hypothesis clustering, all eukaryotes) using the VSEARCH consensus taxonomy method. This alignment-based approach was selected over the Naive Bayes classifier for its reduced memory footprint while maintaining comparable classification accuracy.
- Non-Phylogenetic Diversity Analysis: Because the ITS region cannot be meaningfully aligned across distantly related fungal taxa, all diversity analyses were restricted to non-phylogenetic metrics (Bray-Curtis, Jaccard, Shannon, observed features, Pielou evenness). A rarefaction depth of 4,000 reads was selected, retaining 44 of 48 samples (92%). Alpha and beta group significance testing and ANCOM-BC differential abundance analysis were performed identically to the 16S pipeline.

Hardware Recommendations
The pipeline was developed and validated on a system with 16 GB RAM. Memory-intensive steps (DADA2 denoising, MAFFT alignment, Naive Bayes classification) are configured with thread-limited execution (--p-n-threads 2 or --p-n-jobs 2) to prevent out-of-memory failures. Approximately 15 GB of disk space is required for the complete set of intermediate and output artifacts (excluding raw FASTQ files).

Reproducing the Analysis
Step 1: Data Acquisition
Raw sequencing data must be downloaded from the European Nucleotide Archive prior to analysis. The data_download.ipynb notebook automates this process using the ENA REST API. Alternatively, the raw FASTQ files can be retrieved manually using the accession numbers listed in PRJEB95045_runinfo.tsv.
Step 2: 16S rRNA Gene Analysis
The 16S pipeline is documented in notebooks/16S_pipeline/01_16S_rRNA_amplicon_analysis.ipynb. Due to the memory requirements of several processing steps, the following standalone scripts should be executed sequentially:
# DADA2 denoising (~45 minutes)
nohup bash run_dada2_16s.sh > dada2_16s.log 2>&1 &
# Phylogenetic tree construction (~30 minutes)
nohup bash run_phylogeny_16s.sh > phylogeny_16s.log 2>&1 &
# Taxonomic classification (~20 minutes)
nohup bash run_taxonomy_16s.sh > taxonomy_16s.log 2>&1 &
# Diversity analysis and statistical testing (~15 minutes)
nohup bash run_diversity_16s.sh > diversity_16s.log 2>&1 &
Step 3: ITS Fungal Analysis
The ITS pipeline is documented in notebooks/ITS_pipeline/01_ITS_fungal_amplicon_analysis.ipynb. The notebook is designed to be executed interactively, with computationally intensive taxonomy steps optionally offloaded to:
nohup bash run_its_taxonomy.sh > its_taxonomy.log 2>&1 &
Reference Databases
| Database | Version | Marker | Classification Method | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SILVA | 138.2 NR99 | 16S | Naive Bayes (scikit-learn) | SILVA Project |
| UNITE | 10.0 Dynamic | ITS | VSEARCH consensus taxonomy | UNITE Community |
Reference databases are acquired programmatically via the QIIME 2 RESCRIPt plugin during pipeline execution. Pre-trained classifiers and extracted reference sequences exceeding 100 MB are excluded from version control and are regenerated automatically by the pipeline scripts.
Output Artifacts
All analytical outputs are stored as QIIME 2 artifacts (.qza) and visualizations (.qzv). Visualization files can be inspected interactively using the QIIME 2 Viewer at https://view.qiime2.org without requiring a local QIIME 2 installation.
