📊 Circular and Rectangular Manhattan Plot

CMplot

A high-quality drawing tool designed for Manhattan plot of genomic analysis

Installation

CMplot is available on CRAN, so it can be installed with the following R code:

> install.packages("CMplot")
> library("CMplot")

# if you want to use the latest version on GitHub:
> source("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/YinLiLin/CMplot/master/R/CMplot.r")

---

There are two example datasets attached in CMplot, users can export and view the details by following R code:

> data(pig60K)   #calculated p-values by MLM
> data(cattle50K)   #calculated SNP effects by rrblup
> head(pig60K)

As the example datasets, the first three columns are names, chromosome, position of SNPs respectively, the rest of columns are the pvalues of GWAS or effects of GS/GP for traits, the number of traits is unlimited. Note: if plotting SNP_Density, only the first three columns are needed.

Now CMplot could handle not only Genome-wide association study results, but also SNP effects, Fst, tajima's D and so on.

Total 50~ parameters are available in CMplot, typing ?CMplot can get the detail function of all parameters.

Genome-wide association study(GWAS)

> CMplot(pig60K,type="p",plot.type="m",LOG10=TRUE,threshold=NULL,file="jpg",memo="",dpi=300,
    file.output=TRUE,verbose=TRUE,width=14,height=6,chr.labels.angle=45)
# 'chr.labels.angle': adjust the angle of labels of x-axis (-90 < chr.labels.angle < 90).

Amplify signals on pch, cex and col

#Note: if the ylim is setted, then CMplot will only plot the points among this interval,
#       ylim can be vector or list, if it is a list, different traits can be assigned with
#       different range at y-axis.

Highlight a group of SNPs on pch, cex, type, and col

        chr.border=TRUE,dpi=300,file.output=TRUE,verbose=TRUE,width=14,height=6)
#Note:
'highlight' could be vector or list, if it is a vector, all traits will use the same highlighted SNPs index, 
if it is a list, the length of the list should equal to the number of traits.
highlight.col, highlight.cex, highlight.pch can be value or vector, if its length equals to the length of highlighted SNPs,
each SNPs have its special colour, size and shape.

#Note:
'highlight', 'highlight.text', 'highlight.text.xadj', 'highlight.text.yadj' could be vector or list, if it is a vector, 
all traits will use the same highlighted SNPs index and text, if it is a list, the length of the list should equal to the number of traits.
the order of 'highlight.text' must be consistent with 'highlight'
highlight.text.cex: value or vecter, control the size of added text
highlight.text.font: value or vecter, control the font of added text
highlight.text.xadj: value or vecter or list for multiple traits, -1, 0, 1 limited, control the position of text around the highlighted SNPs,
                     -1(left), 0(center), 1(right)
highlight.text.yadj: value or vector or list for multiple traits, same as above, -1(down), 0(center), 1(up)
