The function pathway_errorbar() is used to visualize the results of functional pathway differential abundance analysis as error bar plots.

Description

The function pathway_errorbar() is used to visualize the results of functional pathway differential abundance analysis as error bar plots.

Arguments

abundance	A data frame with row names representing pathways and column names representing samples. Each element represents the relative abundance of the corresponding pathway in the corresponding sample.
daa_results_df	A data frame containing the results of the differential abundance analysis of the pathways, generated by the pathway_daa function. x_lab should be a column name of daa_results_df.
Group	A data frame or a vector that assigns each sample to a group. The groups are used to color the samples in the figure.
ko_to_kegg	A logical parameter indicating whether there was a convertion that convert ko abundance to kegg abundance.
p_values_threshold	A numeric parameter specifying the threshold for statistical significance of differential abundance. Pathways with p-values below this threshold will be considered significant.
order	A parameter controlling the ordering of the rows in the figure. The options are: "p_values" (order by p-values), "name" (order by pathway name), "group" (order by the group with the highest mean relative abundance), or "pathway_class" (order by the pathway category).
select	A vector of pathway names to be included in the figure. This can be used to limit the number of pathways displayed. If NULL, all pathways will be displayed.
p_value_bar	A logical parameter indicating whether to display a bar showing the p-value threshold for significance. If TRUE, the bar will be displayed.
colors	A vector of colors to be used to represent the groups in the figure. Each color corresponds to a group.
x_lab	A character string to be used as the x-axis label in the figure. The default value is "description" for KOs'descriptions and "pathway_name" for KEGG pathway names.

Value

A ggplot2 plot showing the error bar plot of the differential abundance analysis results for the functional pathways. The plot visualizes the differential abundance results of a specific differential abundance analysis method. The corresponding dataframe contains the results used to create the plot.
