Input data requirements

The input data required for greatR is a data frame that contains gene expression time-course data with all replicates. The illustrated diagram below shows the required structure of the input.



This data frame must contain reference and query expression data which users wish to compare, and the following five columns:

Below we can see a real example of how the input data should look like:
