Plot dispersion estimates — plotDispEsts • DEXSeq

A simple helper function that plots the per-gene dispersion estimates together with the fitted mean-dispersion relationship. Internally, it is a wrapper for the pltoDispEsts method from DESeq2.

Usage

# S4 method for class 'DEXSeqDataSet'
plotDispEsts(object, ymin,
  genecol = "black", fitcol = "red", finalcol = "dodgerblue",
  legend=TRUE, xlab, ylab, log = "xy", cex = 0.45, ...)

Arguments

object: a DESeqDataSet
ymin: the lower bound for points on the plot, points beyond this are drawn as triangles at ymin
genecol: the color for gene-wise dispersion estimates
fitcol: the color of the fitted estimates
finalcol: the color of the final estimates used for testing
legend: logical, whether to draw a legend
xlab: xlab
ylab: ylab
log: log
cex: cex
