How to handle duplicate or repeated taxa in LEfSe results

General
1

Hello everyone,

I ran LEfSE analysis in R Studio using the microbiomeMarker package on microbiota data.
I got an output with several repeated biomarkers.

condition Biomarker_Taxon LDA_log10
Chl Control SAR324_clade(Marine_group_B) 2.676009008
Chl Control SAR324_clade(Marine_group_B) 2.675979293
Chl Control SAR324_clade(Marine_group_B)s_ 2.668985540

I am struggling to find the reason why it got duplicated.
How should I handle or interpret the repeated taxa?
Is there any way to collapse or deduplicate them eventually?
Or what is the best practice?
Any advice is very much welcome.
Thank you so much,
Kat
