subset data

[emihoe]

Hello,
I would like to subset my picrust2 data once I've integrated my abundance table and metadata. I would like to subset from one of my metadata columns (i.e. subset based on soil sample, excluding all "water" samples).
How can I do this?
Thank you

Hello @emihoe ,

You can use the following code similar.

sub_metadata <- metadata %>% filter(your_group_column != "water")
sub_abundance <- abundance[, sub_metadata$your_sample_id_column]

Best regards,
