plot.QTLMPP {statgenMPP}R Documentation

Plot function for the class QTLMPP

Description

Creates a plot of an object of S3 class QTLMPP. The following types of plot can be made:

See details for a detailed description of the plots and the plot options specific to the different plots.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'QTLMPP'
plot(
  x,
  ...,
  plotType = c("QTLProfile", "parEffs", "QTLRegion", "QTLProfileExt"),
  title = NULL,
  output = TRUE
)

Arguments

x

An object of class QTLMPP.

...

further arguments to be passed on to the actual plotting functions.

plotType

A character string indicating the type of plot to be made. One of "QTLProfile", "parEffs", and "QTLRegion".

title

A character string, the title of the plot.

output

Should the plot be output to the current device? If FALSE, only a ggplot object is invisibly returned.

QTL Profile plot

A profile of all marker positions and corresponding -log10(p) values is plotted. QTLs found are highlighted with red dots. The threshold is plotted as a horizontal line. If there are previously known marker effects, false positives and true negatives can also be marked.
Extra parameter options:

xLab

A character string, the x-axis label. Default = "Chromosomes"

yLab

A character string, the y-axis label. Default = -log10(p)

effects

A character vector, indicating which markers correspond to a real (known) effect. Used for determining true/false positives and false negatives. True positives are colored green, false positives orange and false negatives yellow.

colPalette

A color palette used for plotting. Default coloring is done by chromosome, using black and grey.

signLwd

A numerical value giving the thickness of the points that are false/true positives/negatives. Default = 0.6

chr

A vector of chromosomes to be plotted. By default, all chromosomes are plotted. Using this option allows restricting the plot to a subset of chromosomes.

Parental effects Plot

A plot of effect sizes for each of the parents for the QTLs found is created.
Extra parameter options:

xLab

A character string, the x-axis label. Default = "Chromosomes"

yLab

A character string, the y-axis label. Default = "Parents"

#'

chr

A vector of chromosomes to be plotted. By default, all chromosomes are plotted. Using this option allows restricting the plot to a subset of chromosomes.

QTL Region Plot

A plot of effect is created on which the positions of the QTLs found in the QTL detection are highlighted in red.
No extra parameter options.

Extended QTL Profile Plot

An extended version of the QTL Profile Plot, in which the QLT profile plot is combined with the parental effect plot to make it easier to assess the effects for each specific QTL found.
Extra parameter options:

chr

A vector of chromosomes to be plotted. By default, all chromosomes are plotted. Using this option allows restricting the plot to a subset of chromosomes.

Examples

## Not run: 
## Read phenotypic data.
pheno <- read.delim(system.file("extdata/multipop", "AxBxCpheno.txt",
                               package = "statgenMPP"))
## Rename first column to genotype.
colnames(pheno)[1] <- "genotype"


## Compute IBD probabilities for simulated population - AxB, AxC.
ABC <- calcIBDMPP(crossNames = c("AxB", "AxC"),
                  markerFiles = c(system.file("extdata/multipop", "AxB.txt",
                                              package = "statgenMPP"),
                                  system.file("extdata/multipop", "AxC.txt",
                                              package = "statgenMPP")),
                  pheno = pheno,
                  popType = "F4DH",
                  mapFile = system.file("extdata/multipop", "mapfile.txt",
                                        package = "statgenMPP"),
                  evalDist = 5)

## Multi-QTL Mapping.
ABC_MQM <- selQTLMPP(ABC, trait = "yield")

## QTL Profile plot.
plot(ABC_MQM, plotType = "QTLProfile")

## Plot of parental effects for QTLs found.
plot(ABC_MQM, plotType = "parEffs")

## Plot of genetic map highlighting positions of QTLs found.
plot(ABC_MQM, plotType = "QTLRegion")

## Extended QTL Profile plot.
plot(ABC_MQM, plotType = "QTLProfileExt")
