similar to: Formatting names.arg

I am making a barplot using barplot2 from gplots where each bar represents a specific tree species. I have formatted the species names on the x-axis so that the genus name is above the species name and have then rotated the labels 45 degrees to save room. This is my code: >columncolor<-c("grey20", "grey20", "grey20", "grey70",

I am trying to tweak how my categorical x-axis labels are formatted in my bar graph. Specifically, I would like to a) decrease the spacing between lines (e.g. spacing between Dialium and guianensis) b) right justify the text and c) have each species name align with the center of the corresponding bar graph. A simplified version of my code thus far is as follows. I am using RStudio v.

Part of my script reads: speciesName <- names(data)[i] plot(year,depth, xlab="Year", ylab="Depth(m)",main=expression(italic(paste(speciesName))) ) Unfortunately, this just plots *speciesName *on my graph, not the name of the species in italics. Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Thank you Jacob [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, I'm having a problem where by I'm trying to use the NeatMap draw.dendrogram function as it is more versatile in placement/direction of dendrograms, instead of the limited plot function. Using plot I can get my dendrograms to display the species name for each leaf of the tree. But I cannot figure out how to make this happen using draw.dendrogram.. genetic<-

Greetings, I am new to R and am hoping to get some tips from experienced R-programmers. I have a dataset that I've read into R as a dataframe. There are 5 columns: Plot location,species name, a species number code (unique to each species name), abundance, and treatment. There are 272 plots in each treatment, but only the plots in which the species was recorded have an abundance value. For
