plot.LDdf: Plot function for class 'LDdf'

Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s) See Also

Description

The function visualises wheter the LD between adjacent values or visualization of pairwise Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) estimates generated by function pairwiseLD versus marker distance. A single plot is generated for every chromosome.

## S3 method for class 'LDdf'
plot(x, gpData, plotType = "dist", dense = FALSE, nMarker = TRUE,
                    centr = NULL, chr = NULL, type = "p",breaks = NULL, n = NULL, 
                    file = NULL, fileFormat = "pdf", onefile = TRUE, colL = 2, 
                    colD = 1, ...)

Arguments

x

Object of class LDdf, i.e the output of function pairwiseLD with argument type="data.frame".

gpData

Object of class gpData with object map

plotType

You can decide, if you like to have a plot with the LD of the neighbouring markers (option "neighbour"), or you like to have a scatter plot of distance and LD (default option "dist").

dense

For plotType="neighbour", logical. Should density visualization for high-density genetic maps be used?

nMarker

For plotType="neighbour", logical. Print number of markers for each chromosome?

centr

For plotType="neighbour", numeric vector. Positions for the centromeres in the same order as chromosomes in map. If "maize", centromere positions of maize in Mbp are used.

chr

For plotType="dist", numeric scalar or vector. Return value is a plot for each chromosome in chr. Note: Remember to add in a batch-script one empty line for each chromosome, if you use more than one chromosome!

type

For plotType="dist", character string to specify the type of plot. Use "p" for a scatterplot, "bars" for stacked bars or "nls" for scatterplot together with nonlinear regression curve according to Hill and Weir (1988).

breaks

For plotType="dist", list containing breaks for stacked bars (optional, only for type="bars"). Components are dist with breaks for distance on x-axis and r2 for breaks on for r2 on y-axis. By default, 5 equal spaced categories for dist and r2 are used.

n

For plotType="dist", numeric. Number of observations used to estimate LD. Only required for type="nls".

file

Optionally a path to a file where the plot is saved to

fileFormat

character. At the moment two file formats are supported: pdf and png. Default is "pdf".

onefile

logical. If fileFormat = "pdf" you can decide, if you like to have all graphics in one file or in multiple files.

colL

The color for the line if type="nls" is used. In other cases without a meaning.

colD

The color for the dots in the plot of type="nls" and type="p"
