  • Trouble with EdgeR

    Hi,

    A bit of background info. I am using the Trinity/ RSEM/EdgeR pipeline. I have 9 samples in total (3 conditions over 3 time points -NO REPLICATES - I know it's not been ideal).

    I have ran the following pipeline: http://trinityrnaseq.sourceforge.net..._analysis.html

    (I ran the No reps option for EdgeR).

    Now I am all rather new to this so please be as explanative as possible.

    I have carried out D.E.G expression between all of the samples and produced heat maps and output files ".DE.results" for all the comparisons I deemed suitable. I now want to be able to produce an MDSplot using EdgeR to compare the similarities between all 9 samples to see the similarity.

    I have R studio with all the much needed modules loaded. My data looks like this when loaded( see attachment image). Can someone please,please tell me how to create a suitable MDS plot.. I have attached my data file, however when I type "plotMDS(y)" it says 'too few many rows'... as you have guessed..I am a newbie with R too. How do I go about producing a suitable plot? Can someone please get me started? I have looked at the EdgeR manual,but I can't make much sense as i have completed the process automated, I am only wanting to produce graphical plots. It seems the only plot that came from EdgeR was the heatmap.pdf, is this normal?

    One more question, I have done genes as well as isoforms. I couldn't carry out GO annotation etc on the genes themselves,but for the isoforms I can carry this out. Is it fine to go with the isoforms for D.G.E and functional annotation? I can only extract the isoforms(transcripts) from the Trinity.fasta file produced from the transcriptome assemblage. Is this method correct?

    Many thanks.

    ------UPDATE--------

    OK, bit of an update... me being a newbie :/ I removed the ID column in Excel and saved the file and entered it back into R, I've attached and now can do the MDSplot function. I want to now ask, What is the best statistical principle to apply to the data?

    Bear in mind I have NO REPLICATES...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
