The hidecan_plot()
function is really a wrapper that
performs a series of steps to go from GWAS/DE results and candidate
genes data-frames to a HIDECAN (gg)plot. In this vignette, we present
the different steps performed by the wrapper function. This can be
useful for users who want more control over the process. We’ll work with
the example dataset provided with the package

Under the hood, the hidecan
package relies on S3
classes, which are really just tibbles with specific columns. The
constructors for these S3 classes perform a series of checks and
computations to make sure that all of the required columns (such as
chromosome, score, position) are present in the data.

These constructors will throw an error if a required column is missing from the input data (e.g. no chromosome column):
<- x[["GWAS"]] |>
gwas_wrong_input select(-chromosome)
GWAS_data(gwas_wrong_input)
#> Error: Input data-frame is missing the following columns: 'chromosome'.
They will also compute marker or gene scores from adjusted p-values
if necessary (see the Input data
section of the hidecan vignette). For example, for DE results, if we
provide a padj
column (with the adjusted p-values of the
genes) rather than a score
column, the constructor will
compute the score
column based on the padj
column. You can also notice that a position
column is
computed based on the start and end of the genes:

Once the input datasets have been formatted appropriately, they are
used to compute the length of the chromosomes present in the data. This
is done through the combine_chrom_length()
function, which
is applied to a list of GWAS_data
, DE_data
or
CAN_data
objects:
<- combine_chrom_length(list(gwas_data,
chrom_length
de_data,
can_data))
chrom_length#> # A tibble: 13 × 2
#> chromosome length
#> <chr> <dbl>
#> 1 ST4.03ch00 45813526
#> 2 ST4.03ch01 88627702
#> 3 ST4.03ch02 48614228
#> 4 ST4.03ch03 62263578
#> 5 ST4.03ch04 72170119
#> 6 ST4.03ch05 52040326
#> 7 ST4.03ch06 59476545
#> 8 ST4.03ch07 56715111
#> 9 ST4.03ch08 56937627
#> 10 ST4.03ch09 61539681

#> 12 ST4.03ch11 45409456
#> 13 ST4.03ch12 61152223
The function works by calling for each element in the list the
compute_chrom_length()
function. The function, according to
whether the input is a tibble of markers (GWAS_data
) or
genes (DE_data
or CAN_data
), looks for the
maximum value in either the position
column (for markers)
or the end
column (for genes).
head(compute_chrom_length(gwas_data), 3)

#> chromosome length
#> <chr> <dbl>
#> 1 ST4.03ch00 45467783
#> 2 ST4.03ch01 88589716

#> 2 ST4.03ch01 88627702
#> 3 ST4.03ch02 48578978
Next, the GWAS and DE results tibbles are filtered according to a
threshold, in order to retain the significant markers or genes. This is
done through the apply_threshold()
function. This function
has two (rather self-explanatory) arguments: score_thr
and
log2fc_thr
.
When applied to a GWAS_data
object, the function filters
markers with a score above the value set with score_thr
argument (the log2fc_thr
argument is ignored), and returns
an object of class GWAS_data_thr
:
dim(gwas_data)
#> [1] 35481 4
<- apply_threshold(gwas_data,
gwas_data_thr score_thr = 4)
class(gwas_data_thr)
#> [1] "GWAS_data_thr" "tbl_df" "tbl" "data.frame"
dim(gwas_data_thr)
#> [1] 37 4
head(gwas_data_thr)
#> # A tibble: 6 × 4
#> id chromosome position score
#> <chr> <chr> <dbl> <dbl>
#> 1 ST4.03ch00_22680252 ST4.03ch00 22680252 4.41

#> 3 ST4.03ch01_7671100 ST4.03ch01 7671100 4.43
#> 4 ST4.03ch01_8653747 ST4.03ch01 8653747 4.69

#> 6 ST4.03ch01_13334335 ST4.03ch01 13334335 5.24
For a DE_data
object, the apply_threshold function
filters genes based on both their score and log2(fold-change), and
returns an object of class DE_data_thr
:
dim(de_data)
#> [1] 10671 9
<- apply_threshold(de_data,
de_data_thr score_thr = 2,
log2fc_thr = 0.5)
class(de_data_thr)
#> [1] "DE_data_thr" "tbl_df" "tbl" "data.frame"
dim(de_data_thr)
#> [1] 2 9

#> # … with abbreviated variable names ¹chromosome, ²log2FoldChange, ³position
Finally, if applied to a CAN_data object, the
apply_threshold()
function simply returns the input tibble
as an object of class CAN_data_thr
:
dim(can_data)
#> [1] 32 7
<- apply_threshold(can_data,
can_data_thr score_thr = 2,
log2fc_thr = 0.5)

As for the GWAS_data
, DE_data
or
CAN_data
objects, the GWAS_data_thr
,
DE_data_thr
and CAN_data_thr
objects are
really just tibbles.
Finally, the filtered datasets are combined into a list and passed on
to the create_hidecan_plot()
function, along with the
tibble of chromosome length. This is the function that generates the
HIDECAN ggplot
:
create_hidecan_plot(
list(gwas_data_thr,
de_data_thr,
can_data_thr),
chrom_length )
This function shares most of its arguments with the
hidecan_plot()
wrapper for controlling different aspects of
the plot.
These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
