Plot a barplot of gene significance.
plotModuleSignificance(
geneSignificance,
colors,
boxplot = FALSE,
main = "Gene significance across modules,",
ylab = "Gene Significance", ...)
a numeric vector giving gene significances.
a character vector specifying module assignment for the genes whose significance is
given in geneSignificance
. The modules should be labeled by colors.
logical: should a boxplot be produced instead of a barplot?
main title for the plot.
y axis label for the plot.
other graphical parameters to plot
.
None.
Given individual gene significances and their module assigment, the function calculates the module significance for each module as the average gene significance of the genes within the module. The result is plotted in a barplot or boxplot form. Each bar or box is labeled by the corresponding module color.
