x |
Data frame or matrix of correlation values. Use one row per sample and one column per gate/abiotic parameter. Use the first column for the first gate/abiotic parameter. The names of the gates and abiotic parameters may not contain any whitespace. If the values contain commas they must be expressed as ".". Missing values or NA's are allowed but should be expressed as "NA" or empty entries within the table. |
cortype |
Character string indicating which correlation coefficient is used. Choose between "spearman" (default), "kendall" and "pearson". See Details for more information. |
exact |
logical (default=FALSE). Do not compute exact p-values. Used for Kendall's tau and Spearman's rho. Can be changed to TRUE if R can compute exact p-values without ties. Computing exact p-values depends on the dataset. For more details type "?cor.test" into R command line. |
colkey |
Indicating the color key/palette used for visualization (default=bluered(21)). See Details for more information. |
Rowv |
logical (default=TRUE). The row dendrogram will be arranged according to similarity. FALSE will arrange the dendrogram according to the sequence of data e.g. according to sampling. |
Colv |
logical (default=TRUE). Determines how the column dendrogram should be reordered. Has the same options as the Rowv argument above. |
symm |
logical (default=TRUE). Indicates if x should be treated symmetrically. Can only be TRUE if x is a square matrix. |
distfun |
Function used for the computation of the distance (dissimilarity) between both rows and columns (default=function(c) as.dist(1 - c)). |
dendrogram |
Character string indicating whether dendrograms should be displayed (default="both"). Can be changed to "row", "column" or "none". Rowv/Colv has to be set TRUE to show a dendrogram for the rows/columns. |
main |
Character string used as title of the correlation heatmap (default="") |
verbose |
logical (default=FALSE). Change to TRUE to print estimates and additional information to the heatmap. |
... |
Additional heatmap parameters. For more details type "?heatmap.2" into R command line. |
Visualize the correlations between the cell number variations and abiotic parameters as a heatmap using the heatmap.2 function of the package "gplots" (see reference Warnes et al. 2013). Spearman's rank-order correlation coefficient (r_S) is used for this purpose, by default (see reference Koch et al. 2013, Box 1 for more details). This value varies between -1 and 1. The stronger the correlation, the closer the value of the coefficient to 1 (for positive correlations) or -1 (for negative correlations). Kendall's tau rank correlation coefficient also assigns the values to ranks but considers the difference between the probability that any two points will agree on the relative ranks compared to the probability that they will disagree. Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficient uses the true values and can be chosen to depict linear relationships. You can choose the color key/palette and the gradiations for visualization. By choosing the default color key positive correlations will be shown in shades of red, negative correlations will be shown in shades of blue and neutral correlations will be shown in white. Other possibilities are e.g. topo.colors(16), cm.colors(15) or heat.colors(11). The space within the brackets defines the gradiations of the color key. For more details type "??Palettes" into R command line. It is also possible to define an own color palette. For more details on that type "?colorRampPalette" into R command line.

This function generates a barcode of the normalized cell numbers for all measurements using the heatmap.2 function of the package "gplots" (see reference Warnes et al. 2013). The barcode displays the variation for each gate using a color key with 21 gradations. Very low values are shown in blue, intermediate values are shown in white and high values are sown in deep red. Missing values or NA's are shown in black. In addition a dendrogram to reveal clusters and a histogram of the values are shown. The distribution of the relative or percental cell numbers per gate is visualized as a vertical boxplot. One box consists of the median, the upper and lower quartil (top and bottom of the box) containing 50% of the data, whiskers showing the minimum (within 1.5-fold of the interquartile range of the lower quartile) and the maximum (within 1.5-fold of the interquartile range of the upper quartile) of the data and outliers. Choose between horizontal ("hor") and vertical ("vert") data labels that represent the gates. See reference Koch et al. 2013 for more details.

Visualizes the distance between samples based on their cytometrically measured cell abundance information using nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMDS). NMDS is a mathematical technique to visualize the distances between objects (the samples, in this case). The distances within the plot are used to be in accordance with the dis-/similarities of the samples. The NMDS plot can be created using either the relative/percental cell numbers or the normalized values. If there are high abundance and low abundance gates the NMDS plot could be distorted. In this case it is better to use the normalized values. See reference Koch et al. 2013, Box 1 for more details. The NMDS analysis is performed by using the metaMDS function of the R package "vegan" (see reference Warnes et al. 2013).

x |
Data frame o matrix of all relative or percental cell numbers. Use one row per sample and one column per gate. Use the first column for the first gate. If your first column is used e.g. for sample names read the manual before you continue. The names of the gates may not contain any whitespace. If the values contain commas they must be expressed as ".". Missing values or NA's are allowed but should be expressed as "NA" or empty entries within the table. |
method |
Character string indicating which method is used for normalization (default="mean"). Can be changed to "first". See Details for further information. |
show_avg |
logical (default=TRUE). Show average values. Can be changed to FALSE if the averages are not of interest. Averages are only shown if method="mean". |
... |
Additional parameters used for printing and writing e.g. number of digits. |
This step should be done to ensure the comparability of gates with highly different (low and high) cell abundances. There are two different methods to do this. By choosing "mean" the individual cell number of each gate is normalized by dividing the relative value by the mean of the relative or percental cell numbers for that gate. By choosing "first" the individual cell number of each gate is normalized by dividing the relative value by the first value of that gate.
