plot.entropyProfile: Plot entropy signatures

In MetaEntropy: Functional Shannon Entropy for Virome Mutational Analysis

Plot entropy signatures

Description

Creates entropy charts along a genome.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'entropyProfile'
plot(x, chartType = "bp", ...)

Arguments

x	Object of class entropyProfile.
chartType	Whether to graph per-protein summaries ("bp"), per-protein stripcharts ("stripchart" / "swarm"), or position-wise entropy ("entroScan").
...	Additional arguments passed to the function.

Value

Unrendered gg/ggplot object produced by ggplot2. This function is primarily called for its side effects.

Examples

ancestral <- getEntropySignature(wWater[wWater$wave == "first", ])
omicron <- getEntropySignature(wWater[wWater$wave == "third", ])

# Enhanced Spike entropy plus pervasive negative selection in Omicron
# sublineages
anc_plot <- plot(ancestral, chartType = "stripchart")
omi_plot <- plot(omicron, chartType = "stripchart")
patchwork::wrap_plots(anc_plot/omi_plot)
