Metagenomics Data Visualization Using R
Abstract
Communicating key finds is a crucial part of the research process. Data visualization is the field of graphically representing data to help communicate key findings. Building on previous chapters around data manipulating using the R programming language this, chapter will explore how to use R to plot data and generate high-quality graphics. It will cover plotting using the base R plotting functionality and introduce the famous ggplot2 package [2] that is widely used for data visualization in R. After this general introduction to data visualization tools, the chapter will explore more specific data visualization techniques for metagenomics data and their use cases using these basic packages.
Keywords: Communication; Data visualization; Plotting; R programming language; Research outputs; Research visualization; ggplot2.
