##### Multi-Table Generation
In addition to per-sample profiles, the pipeline also supports generation of 'native' multi-sample taxonomic profiles (i.e., those generated by the taxonomic profiling tools themselves or additional utility scripts provided by the tool authors).
The main multiple-sample table from nf-core/taxprofiler is from a dedicated standalone tool originally developed for the pipeline - [Taxpasta](https://taxpasta.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). When providing `--run_profile_standardisation`, every classifier/profiler and database combination will get a standardised and multi-sample taxon table in the [`taxpasta/`](https://nf-co.re/taxprofiler/output) directory. These tables are structured in the same way, to facilitate comparison between the the results of the classifier/profiler
In addition to per-sample profiles and standardised Taxpasta output, the pipeline also supports generation of 'native' multi-sample taxonomic profiles (i.e., those generated by the taxonomic profiling tools themselves or additional utility scripts provided by the tool authors), when providing `--run_profile_standardisation` to your pipeline.
These are executed on a per-database level. I.e., you will get a multi-sample taxon table for each database you provide for each tool and will be placed in the same directory as the directories containing the per-sample profiles.

- **MetaPhlAn3** (via MetaPhlAn's `merge_metaphlan_tables.py` script)
- **mOTUs** (via the `motus merge` command)
Note that the multi-sample tables from these folders are not inter-operable with each other as they can have different formats.
Note that the multi-sample tables from the 'native' tools in each folders are [not inter-operable](https://taxpasta.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/getting-started/) with each other as they can have different formats and can contain additional and different data. In this case we refer you to use the standardised and merged output from Taxpasta, as described above.

mOTUs does not provide the ability to construct custom databases. Therefore we recommend to use the the prebuilt database of marker genes provided by the developers.
> ⚠️ **Do not change the directory name of the resulting database if moving to a central location** The database name of `db_mOTU/` is hardcoded in the mOTUs tool
To do this you need to have `mOTUs` installed on your machine.
