install with bioconda PyPI - Downloads MetaPhlAn on DockerHub Build MetaPhlAn package

MetaPhlAn is a computational tool for species-level microbial profiling (bacteria, archaea, eukaryotes, and viruses) from metagenomic shotgun sequencing data. StrainPhlAn (available within MetaPhlAn) allows strain-level microbial population genomics.


Installation

To install MetaPhlan through conda run:

$ conda install -c bioconda metaphlan

For further installation instructions and alternative installation methods check the MetaPhlAn documentation.
