hughes: Yeast gene expression data

Description

The data is a small subset of the full dataset from Hughes et al. (2000).

Usage

data(hughes)

format

A data frame for 10 S. cerevisae (which is a common and well-studied species of Yeast) genes (stored in rows) and 300 expression observations (stored in columns). The 10 genes are those positioned 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 in chromosome I in the original data (see link below).
