plot.qb.loci {qtlbim}R Documentation

Jittered plot of Bayesian QTL loci samples by chromosome

Description

Each point is one locus from the Bayesian QTL estimates, plotted vertically by chromosome, jittered to give a sense of density. Separate colored vertical bands by loci element.

Usage

qb.loci(qbObject, loci = c("main", "epistasis", "GxE"), covar, ...)
## S3 method for class 'qb.loci':
plot(x, loci, labels = FALSE, amount = 0.35, cex, col, ...)
## S3 method for class 'qb.loci':
print(x, ...)
## S3 method for class 'qb.loci':
summary(object, digit = 1, ...)

Arguments

qbObject Object of class qb.
loci Character string identifying MCMC sample elements; may include "main", "epistasis", "GxE" and "all".
covar Fixed covariate(s) for "GxE" loci; default is all fixed covariates involved in GxE interactions.
x Object of class qb.loci.
object Object of class qb.loci.
labels Include marker labels if TRUE.
amount Amount of jitter (between 0 and .45)
cex Character expansion (may be invisible if too small–default based on number of MCMC samples).
col Character string with colors named by loci; also includes color for marker lines.
digit Number of digits for roundoff of loci quantiles.
... Graphical parameters can be given as arguments to plot. Not used in qb.loci.

Details

Focuses attention on chromosome lengths and concentration of QTL loci estimates. Horizontal lines at markers. Separate bands by loci for each chromosome. Adjust amount and cex to modify look of plot. Most useful when looking at multiple chromosomes.
