In YTLogos/myTAI: Evolutionary Transcriptomics

myTAI 0.7.0

Updates

New Functions

• new function PlotCIRatio() to compute and visualize TAI/TDI etc patters using bootstrapping and confidence intervals (contributed by @ljljolinq1010)

myTAI 0.6.0

Updates

• is.ExpressionSet() now prints out more detailed error messages when ExpressionSet format is violated

• adapt PlotContribution() to new version of dplyr where summarise_each() is deprecated.

Error message accuring after new dplyr release was:

1. Failure: PlotContribution() works properly with DivergenceExpressionSet input... (@test-PlotContribution.R#16) PlotContribution(DivergenceExpressionSetExample, legendName = "DS") produced messages.

summarise_each() is deprecated. Use summarise_all(), summarise_at() or summarise_if() instead. To map funs over all variables, use summarise_all() summarise_each() is deprecated. Use summarise_all(), summarise_at() or summarise_if() instead. To map funs over all variables, use summarise_all()

It's now fixed.

myTAI 0.2.1

Vignettes

• fixed a wrong example in the Enrichment vignette (https://github.com/HajkD/myTAI/commit/8d52fd60c274361dc9028dec3409abf60a738d8a)

Updates

• PlotGeneSet() and SelectGeneSet() now have a new argument use.only.map specifying whether or not instead of using a standard ExpressionSet a Phylostratigraphic Map or Divergene Map is passed to the function.
• a wrong version of the edgeR Bioconductor package was imported causing version 0.2.0 to fail R CMD Check on unix based systems

myTAI 0.2.0

Vignettes

• adding new vignette Taxonomy providing spep by step instructions on retrieving taxonomic information for any organism of interest

• adding new vignette Expression Analysis providing use cases to perform gene expression data analysis with myTAI

• adding new vignette Enrichment providing step-by-step instructions on how to perform PS and DS enrichment analyses with PlotEnrichment()

• adding examples for pStrata(), pMatrix(), pTAI(), pTDI(), and PlotContribution() to the Introduction Vignette

New Functions

• a new function taxonomy() allows users to retrieve taxonomic information for any organism of interest; this function has been taken from the biomartr package and was removed from biomartr afterwards. Please notice, that in myTAI version 0.1.0 the Introduction vignette referenced to the taxonomy() function in biomartr. This is no longer the case (since myTAI version 0.2.0), because now taxonomy() is implemented in myTAI.

• the new taxonomy() function is based on the powerful R package taxize.

• a new function SelectGeneSet() allows users to fastly select a subset of genes in an ExpressionSet

• a new function DiffGenes() allows users to perform differential gene expression analysis with ExpressionSet objects

• a new function EnrichmentTest() allows users to perform a Fisher's exact test based enrichment analysis of over or underrepresented Phylostrata or Divergence Strata within a given gene set without having to plot the result

• a new function PlotGeneSet() allows users to visualize the expression profiles of a given gene set

• a new function PlotEnrichment() allows users to visualize the Phylostratum or Divergence Stratum enrichment of a given Gene Set as well as computing Fisher's exact test to quantify the statistical significance of enrichment

• a new function PlotContribution() allows users to visualize the Phylostratum or Divergence Stratum contribution to the global TAI/TDI pattern

• a new function pTAI() allows users to compute the phylostratum contribution to the global TAI pattern

• a new function pTDI() allows users to compute the divergence stratum contribution to the global TDI pattern

Updates

• FilterRNASeqCT() has been renamed to Expressed() allowing users to apply this filter function to RNA-Seq data as well as to microarray data
• PlotRE() and PlotMeans() are now based on colors from the RColorBrewer package (default)
• PlotRE() and PlotMeans() now have a new argument colors allowing unsers to choose custom colors for the visualized relative or mean expression profiles
• geom.mean() and harm.mean() now are external functions accessible to the myTAI user

myTAI 0.1.0

Main News

• now all functions have unit tests

New Functions

• a new function pStrata() allows users to compute partial TAI/TDI values for all Phylostrata or Divergence Strata

• a new function CollapseReplicates() allows users to combine replicate expression levels in ExpressionSet objects

• a new function FilterRNASeqCT() allows users to filter expression levels of ExpressionSet objects deriving from RNA-Seq count tables

Updates

• function MatchMap() now receives a new argument remove.duplicates allowing users to delete duplicate gene ids (that might be stored in the input PhyoMap or DivergenceMap) during the process of matching a Map with an ExpressionSet

• FlatLineTest(), ReductiveHourglassTest(), EarlyConservationTest(), and PlotPattern() implement a new argument custom.perm.matrix allowing users to pass their own (custom) permutation matrix to the corresponding function. All subsequent test statistics and p-value/std.dev computations are then based on this custom permutation matrix

• EarlyConservationTest() and ReductiveHourglassTest() now have a new parameter gof.warning allowing users to choose whether or not non significant goodness of fit results should be printed as warning

• now when specifying TestStatistic = NULL in PlotPattern() only the TAI/TDI profile is drawn (without performing any test statistics); this is equavalent to performing: plot(TAI(PhyloExpressionSetExample)

• function combinatorialSignificance() is now named CombinatorialSignificance()

• changing the title and description of the myTAI package

• some minor changes in vignettes and within the documentation of functions

myTAI 0.0.2

New Features in v. 0.0.2

• combinatorialSignificance(), FlatLineTest(), ReductiveHourglassTest(), and EarlyConservationTest() now support multicore processing

• MatchMap() has been entirely rewritten and is now based on dplyr; additionally it now has a new argument accumulate that allows you to accumulate multiple expression levels to a unique expressiion level for a unique gene id

Vignettes

All three Vignettes: Introduction, Intermediate, and Advanced have been updated and extended.

Bug Fixes

• two small bugs in ReductiveHourglassTest() and EarlyConservationTest() have been fixed that caused that instead of displaying 3 or 4 plots (par(mfrow=c(1,3)) or par(mfrow=c(2,2))) only 1 plot has been generated

• a small bug in PlotMeans() that caused the visualization of a wrong y-axis label when plotting only one group of Phylostrata or Divergence Strata
