PhenStat (version 2.6.0)

scatterplotGenotypeWeightResult: Method "scatterplotGenotypeWeightResult"

Description

Graph function for the phenotypic dataset. Creates a scatter plot body weight versus dependent variable. It is based on PhenTestResult object. Both a regression line and a loess line (locally weighted line) is fitted for each genotype.

Usage

scatterplotGenotypeWeightResult(phenTestResult,graphingName=NULL,outputMessages=TRUE)

Arguments

phenTestResult

instance of the PhenTestResult class; mandatory argument

graphingName

a character string defining the name to be used on the graph for the dependent variable; mandatory argument

outputMessages

flag: "FALSE" value to suppress output messages; "TRUE" value to show output messages; default value TRUE
