gl.report.bases: Reports summary of base pair frequencies

Description

This script calculates the frequencies of the four DNA nucleotide bases: adenine (A), cytosine (C), 'guanine (G) and thymine (T), and the frequency of transitions (Ts) and transversions (Tv) in a DArT genlight object.

Usage

gl.report.bases(
  x,
  plot.out = TRUE,
  plot_theme = theme_dartR(),
  plot_colors = two_colors,
  save2tmp = FALSE,
  verbose = NULL
)

Value

The unchanged genlight object

Arguments

x

Name of the genlight object containing the SNP or presence/absence (SilicoDArT) data [required].

plot.out

If TRUE, histograms of base composition are produced [default TRUE].

plot_theme

Theme for the plot. See Details for options [default theme_dartR()].

plot_colors

List of two color names for the borders and fill of the plots [default two_colors].

save2tmp

If TRUE, saves any ggplots and listings to the session temporary directory (tempdir) [default FALSE]

verbose

Verbosity: 0, silent or fatal errors; 1, begin and end; 2, progress log; 3, progress and results summary; 5, full report [default NULL, unless specified using gl.set.verbosity]

Details

The script checks first if trimmed sequences are included in the locus metadata (@other$loc.metrics$TrimmedSequence), and if so, tallies up the numbers of A, T, G and C bases. Only the reference state at the SNP locus is counted. Counts of transitions (Ts) and transversions (Tv) assume that there is no directionality, that is C->T is the same as T->C, because the reference state is arbitrary.

For presence/absence data (SilicoDArT), it is not possible to count transversions or transitions or transversions/transitions ratio because the SNP data is not available, only a single sequence tag.
