Taxallnomy

Description:

    Taxallnomy is a taxonomic database that provides taxonomic lineages according to the ranks used on Linnean classification system (e.g. Kingdom, Phylum, Class etc.). Taxallnomy is based on the NCBI Taxonomy, thus you will find along the taxonomic lineage either taxa originally ranked in NCBI Taxonomy or some unique nodes created by the Taxallnomy algorithm, since some taxonomic ranks are missing in the original taxonomic lineage (for example, the Superclass rank is missing on the Homo sapiens lineage). Feel free to explore more about the Taxallnomy hierarchical structure using this interface!

    Parameters:

    • txid: Taxonomy IDs separated by comma. E.g. 9606,9595,10090
    • rank (main|common|custom, default: common): taxonomic ranks to retrieve;
      • main: retrieves Superkingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
      • common: retrieves the "main" taxonomic ranks plus Kingdom, Subphylum, Super- and Sub- of Class, Order and Family; Subgenus and Subspecies.
      • custom: retrieves the taxonomic ranks specified by the user (Requires srank).
    • srank: Specify the taxonomic ranks to be retrieved. Use this parameter along with custom option on rank parameter. Use comma between rank names. See here the valid rank names.
    • format (tab|json|xml, default: tab): output format.
