Volcano Figure

Function for generating volcano plot with log fold change as x-axis and -log10(p-value) as y-axis. Volcano plots are typically used for evaluation of differential expression statuses in a data set.

fig.volcano(DEA.res, Pval = 0.01, title)

Arguments

DEA.res	Results of a differential expression analysis using the included methods DE.voom or DE.edgeR. Must be a list including p.val p-values for differential expression log2.FC Fold change on a log2 scale
Pval	optional p-value cutoff for differential expression
title	optional Figure title

Value

volcano plot (ggplot2 object)

Examples

voom.benchmark <- DE.voom(data.benchmark, data.group)
fig.volcano(voom.benchmark, title = "Benchmark data (differential expression)")
