plotGenePair: Scatter plots for pair of genes

Description

This function displays scatter plots for pair of genes that presented altered correlation values in Relevance Network analysis.

Usage

plotGenePair(obj, gene1, gene2, posL=NULL, rCor=TRUE)

Arguments

obj

object of class maigesRelNetM.

gene1

character string giving the first gene identification.

gene2

character string giving the first gene identification.

posL

numerical vector of length 2, specifying the x and y position of the legend.

rCor

logical specifying if the correlation are robust (calculated by the function robustCorr. Defaults to TRUE.

Value

This function don't return any object.

Details

This function only picks the result of the relNetworkM and display scatter plots for a pair of genes giving the regression lines and the correlation values for the two biological groups tested.

Examples

## Loading the dataset
data(gastro)

## Constructing the relevance network for sample
## 'Tissue' comparing 'Neso' and 'Aeso' for the 1st gene group
gastro.net = relNetworkM(gastro.summ, sLabelID="Tissue", 
  samples = list(Neso="Neso", Aeso="Aeso"), geneGrp=11,
  type="Rpearson")

## As the sample size is small, because we used a small fraction of the
## genes from the original dataset, this isn't so reliable.
