Details

Possible arguments to "plotMA":

• "rate" - A character, which represent the rate to be visualized, either "synthesis", "processing" or "degradation". By default, "synthesis" is chosen.

• "xlim" - A numeric vector of length 2, limits of x-axis, by default the range of the data.
• "xlab" - A character, the label of x-axis, by default "log2 geometric mean"
• "ylim" - A numeric vector of length 2, limits of y-axis, by default the range of the data.
• "ylab" - A character, the label of y-axis, by default "log2 fold change"
• "main" - A character, the title of the plot, by default the name of the visualized rate.
