Dear list,
I have some microarray data in which gene expression was profiled in
two
different tissues, collected at the same time from the same subjects.
I would like to use hierarchical clustering initially to cluster the
gene
expression patterns separately for each tissue.
Then I would like to correlate gene expression traits between the two
tissues,
and plot the two cluster dendrograms together with links representing
the
between tissue correlations of the clustered genes in a single plot
(see
hypothetical example in the attached powerpoint slide).
The problem is that I do not know how to go about plotting this in R.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
Best regards,
Anthony Bosco

Hi, Anthony. Powerpoint get's scrubbed, I think. You may have to put
up a
link to the slide. I have to admit, I'm not clear on what you want to
do.

It sounds like he wants to align the dendrograms and plot the R^2 for
expression at each concordant split. False?
OP: This sounds an awful lot like biclustering, why not just look
into
that?
