Parses a file in BIOM format from QIIME into a taxmap object. I have not tested if it works with other BIOM files.
parse_qiime_biom(file)(character of length 1) The file path to the input file.
A taxmap object
This function was inspired by the tutorial created by Geoffrey Zahn at http://geoffreyzahn.com/getting-your-otu-table-into-r/.
