Description Usage Arguments Details Value

Description

qtlSignTest Uses the Fraser etc. sign test to assess neutral evolution for a set of expression phenotypes

Usage

1
qtlSignTest(effect = NULL, trans.effect = NULL, verbose = T, ...)

Arguments

effect

Signed cis-eQTL or allele-specific expression log2-fold change data

trans.effect

If effect is signed cis-eQTL effect, one can test the independence of cis and trans eQTL evolution. Here provide effect effect of trans QTL.

verbose

should results be printed to console?

...

Additional arguments to pass on to fisher.test / binom.test, such as null hypotheses.

id

label for output

Details

Value

The results of a binomial test (or Fisher's exact test if trans.dir is specified).
