Volcano plot (log2fc / pvalues) — artmsVolcanoPlot (original) (raw)

It generates a scatter-plot used to quickly identify changes

artmsVolcanoPlot( mss_results, output_name = "volcano_plot.pdf", lfc_upper = 1, lfc_lower = -1, whatPvalue = "adj.pvalue", FDR = 0.05, PDF = TRUE, decimal_threshold = 16, verbose = TRUE )

Arguments

mss_results (data.frame or file) Selected MSstats results
output_name (char) Name for the output file (don't forget the .pdfextension)
lfc_upper (numeric) log2fc upper threshold (positive value)
lfc_lower (numeric) log2fc lower threshold (negative value)
whatPvalue (char) pvalue or adj.pvalue (default)
FDR (numeric) False Discovery Rate threshold
PDF (logical) Option to generate pdf format. Default: T
decimal_threshold (numeric) Decimal threshold for the pvalue. Default: 16 (10^-16)
verbose (logical) TRUE (default) shows function messages

Value
