Genomics data analysis is one of these fields where good visualisation tools can be of great help. The aim of [CopyNumberPlots](http://bioconductor.org/packages/CopyNumberPlots/) is to offer the user an easy way to create copy-number related plots using the infrastructure provided by the R/Bioconductor package [karyoploteR](http://bioconductor.org/packages/karyoploteR/) In addition to a set of specialized plotting functions for copy-number analysis data and results (`plotBAF`, `plotCopyNumberCalls`, ...), CopyNumberPlots contains a number of data loading functions to help parsing and loading the results of widely used copy-number calling software such as [DNAcopy]( http://bioconductor.org/packages/DNAcopy/), [DECoN](https://wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/1-20/v1) or [CNVkit](https://cnvkit.readthedocs.io/en/stable/). Finally, since CopyNumberPlots extends the functionality of karyoploteR, it is possible to combine the plotting functions of both packages to get the perfect figure for your data. ## Installation CopyNumberPlots is a [Bioconductor](http://bioconductor.org) package and to install it we have to use [BiocManager](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/BiocManager/vignettes/BiocManager.html) ```{r getPackage, eval=FALSE} if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) install.packages("BiocManager") BiocManager::install("CopyNumberPlots") ``` ## More information You can find more information on CopyNumberPlots in [its Bioconductor page](http://bioconductor.org/packages/CopyNumberPlots/) and specially in the [CopyNumberPlots vignette](https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/CopyNumberPlots/inst/doc/CopyNumberPlots.html). You can find more information on how to use karyoploteR in the [karyoploteR tutorial](https://bernatgel.github.io/karyoploter\_tutorial/).
