Removal of OTUs with certain abundance from future analysis

There has been some discussion about the ‘rare biosphere’ and it would be great to have a feature that would allow to remove all OTUs that are only present below a certain cut-off (cut-off should be user defined).

Thanks for your consideration.

Best,

Matthias

Is that what you’re looking for?

Awesome!

Yes - this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
