GSA.plot {GSA}

Plot the results from a Gene set analysis

Description

Plots the results from a call to GSA (Gene set analysis)

Usage

GSA.plot(GSA.obj, fac=1, FDRcut = 1)

Arguments

GSA.obj

Object returned by GSA function

.

fac

value for jittering points in plot ("factor" in called to jitter()

FDRcut

False discovery rate cutpoint for sets to be plotted. A value of 1 (the default) will cause all sets to be plotted

.

Details

This function makes a plot of the significant gene sets, based on a call to the GSA (Gene set analysis) function.
