Absolutely, but in the opposite order than you did. The problem with loading
swissprot first is that then you get about 6000-7000 taxa with unreliable
(against the NCBI taxonomy as the standard) and/or incomplete lineages.

First load the NCBI taxonomy database, only then a sequence database. Which
BTW should also rid you of some errors you will have seen when you loaded
swissprot.
