ploidyR Documentation

Guess the ploidy of a given flowframe

Description

Use the FSC.A/FSC.H ratio. Diploids are typically 5um x 6um ellipsoids while haploids are typically 4um x 4um spheroids. As a result, diploids are longer and you get a larger 'area/volume' FSC.A. 'Width' might also be useful on certain cytometers.

Usage

ploidy(flowframe)

Arguments

flowframe

the flowFrame you would like to identify the ploidy of

Value

"Diploid" or "Haploid" and the mean FSC.A/FSC.H quotient

Examples

dat <- read.flowSet(path = system.file("extdata", "ss_example",
package = "flowTime"), alter.names = TRUE)
ploidy(dat$A01.fcs)
