Abstract
Glimma 1.0 introduced intuitive, point-and-click interactive graphics for differential gene expression analysis. Here, we present a major update to Glimma which brings improved inter-activity and reproducibility using high-level visualisation frame-works for R and JavaScript. Glimma 2.0 plots are now readily embeddable in R Markdown, thus allowing users to create reproducible reports containing interactive graphics. The revamped multidimensional scaling plot features dashboard-style controls allowing the user to dynamically change the colour, shape and size of sample points according to different experimental conditions. Interactivity was enhanced in the MA-style plot for comparing differences to average expression, which now supports selecting multiple genes, export options to PNG, SVG or CSV formats and includes a new volcano plot function. Feature-rich and user-friendly, Glimma makes exploring data for gene expression analysis more accessible and intuitive and is available on Bioconductor and GitHub.
