jaguar_plotqtl: Plotting the eQTL results

Description

Scatter plot displaying eQTL results with transcript location on the y-axis and SNP location on the x-axis. This plot is an implementation of ePlot function from Wei Sun's eMap R-package.

Usage

jaguar_plotqtl(geneID,snpID,gene.chr,gene.pos,snp.chr,snp.pos,scores,chroms=1:22)

Arguments

geneID

A vector indicating the genes to be mapped

snpID

A vector indicating the SNPs to be mapped

gene.chr

A vector indicating the chromosomal location of the genes to be mapped

gene.pos

A vector indicating the start site of all the genes on the Gene Chip

snp.chr

A vector indicating the chromosomal location of the SNPs to be mapped

snp.pos

A vector indicating the chromosomal location of all the SNPs on the SNP Chip

scores

A vector of p-values of each Gene-SNP pair

chroms

A vector indicating the number of chromosomes to me mapped. Usually, it is 1 to 22 (excluding X and Y chromosomes)

Examples

## NOT RUN
### Read the annotation file of the Gene Chip
#genes = read.table("gene_annotation.txt",header=T,check.names=F)
#eChr = genes$Chromosome
#ePos = genes$StartSite
#
### Read the annotation file of the SNP Chip
#snps = read.table("snp_annotation.txt",header=F)
#mChr = snps$Chr
#mPos = snps$Pos
#
### Read the significant Gene-SNP pairs that are needed to be mapped
#out = jaguar_process(jaguar.out,threshold=0.05)

#geneID = match(out$Gene,genes$Probe_Id)
#markerID = match(out$SNP,snps$SNP_Id)
