Visual Integration of Genome-Wide Association Studies and Differential Expression Results with the Hidecan R Package.

ABSTRACT:

Background/objectives

We present hidecan, an R package for generating visualisations that summarise the results of one or more genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and differential expression analyses, as well as manually curated candidate genes, e.g., extracted from the literature. This tool is applicable to all ploidy levels; we notably provide functionalities to facilitate the visualisation of GWAS results obtained for autotetraploid organisms with the GWASpoly package.

Results

We illustrate the capabilities of hidecan with examples from two autotetraploid potato datasets.

Conclusions

The hidecan package is implemented in R and is publicly available on the CRAN repository and on GitHub. A description of the package, as well as a detailed tutorial, is made availab
