ggplot2 add text on top of boxplots

问题:

I have a data that I'm plotting on ggplot2 as boxplots which look like

> head(varf)
             sID variable       value
1 SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.492537313
2 SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.479564033
3 SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.559139785
4 SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.526806527
5 SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.009049774
6 SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.451612903

The variable column contains 16 different IDs (from CM0001 to CM0016)

I have a dataframe with annotation

category   annotation
CM001      HG4450
CM002      HG3288
..
CM016      MM8998

I would like to map these annotations on top of my boxplots but couldn't find a way to do it, what is the right syntax of using geom_text with boxplot ?

Thanks

回答1:

There are many ways to approach this problem, e.g. here and here. Probably the simplest way is

meds <- c(by(mtcars$mpg, mtcars$cyl, median))
ggplot(mtcars, aes(factor(cyl), mpg)) +
    geom_boxplot() + 
    geom_text(data=data.frame(), aes(x=names(meds), y=meds, label=1:3), col='red', size=10)

varf <- read.table(text = "sID variable       value
SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.492537313
SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.479564033
SP_SA036,SA040   CM0001 0.559139785
SP_SA036,SA040   CM0002 0.526806527
SP_SA036,SA040   CM0002 0.009049774
SP_SA036,SA040   CM0002 0.451612903", header = T)

anot <- read.table(text = "category   annotation
CM0001      HG4450
CM0002      HG3288", header = T)

varf <- merge(varf, anot, by.x = "variable", by.y = "category", all.x = T)

library(data.table)
quants <- data.table(varf)[, list(quant = as.numeric(quantile(value)[3])), by = variable]
ggplot(varf, aes(x = variable, y = value, fill = variable)) + 
  geom_boxplot() +
  geom_text(data = quants, aes(x = variable, y = quant, label = variable), size = 10)
