mhtplot {gap} | R Documentation |
To generate Manhattan plot of genomewide significance (p values). It could also be used for any random variable that is uniformly distributed. By default, a log10-transformation is applied so that a different set of cutoffs can be more appropriate. Note that with real chromosomal positions, it is also appropriate to plot and some but not all chromosomes.
mhtplot(data, usepos=FALSE, logscale=TRUE, base=10, cutoffs=c(4,6,8,10), colors=NULL, labels=NULL, gap=NULL, ...)
data |
a data frame with three columns representing chromosome, position and p values |
usepos |
a flag to use real chromosomal positions as composed to ordinal positions |
logscale |
a flag to indicate if p value is to be log-transformed |
base |
the base of the logarithm |
cutoffs |
the cut-offs where horizontal line(s) are drawn |
colors |
the color for different chromosome(s), and random if unspecified |
labels |
labels for the x-axis |
gap |
gap between chromosomes |
... |
other options in compatible with the R plot function |
The plot is shown on or saved to the appropriate device.
