Follow-up question:
I want to make the gene name bold and italic, AND make the "p"
number just bold. But here's the catch: now I want the "p" number to
appear as a superscript!
I am no longer clear (if I ever was) what the "p number might be, but
here is my guess:
main = bquote(italic(.(x[i,1]))*bolditalic(" p")^.(as.character(x[i,
2])))
For more than a guess, post a worked example, please.

For instance: TFL1^687 (the carrot is to indicate that I actually
want the "p" number as a superscript).
Thanks very much in advance!

Could also work inside teh .() function
for (i in 1:nrow(x)){
plot(z <- sort(rnorm(47)), type = "s", main = "")
points(z, cex = .5, col = "dark red")
title(main = bquote(italic(.(x[i,1]))*bold(" p")*bold(.
(as.character(x[i,2])))))
}
