What is the file format for uploading trimmed sequences?
Trimmed sequences can be imported using the NCBI FASTA format. Each read starts with a ‘>’ and the Read_ID is between the ‘>’ and the first ‘|’ (a ‘pipe’ symbol) or the first white space (‘tab’ or ‘space’) and cannot contain any special characters other than underscore ‘_’. Each Read_ID must be a unique value. If there is any other information on the definition line, it must be after the first ‘|’ (or space). The whole definition line is separated from the sequence data by a return or linefeed.
