Hi,
I need to generate bar charts where the x-axis is a factor that
includes a mixture of species names (in italic) and control treatments
(in plain text).
I would like this to be represented in the contents of the axis
labels, meaning that I need the x-axis to include both italic and
plain text. An example of my failed attempt is below (the bins in the
label list containing expressions become blank).
d <- data.frame(Category = c("Sphagnum plant", "Calluna plant",
"Eriophorum plant", "Control"),
Response = c(1, 3, 5, 6))
d
mylabels <- list(expression(paste(italic("Sphagnum"), " plant")),
expression(paste(italic("Calluna"), " plant")),
expression(paste(italic("Eriophorum"), " plant")),
"Control")
ggplot(d) +
aes(x = Category, y = Response) +
geom_bar() +
scale_x_discrete(labels = mylabels)
Any help would be much appreciated!
Many thanks,
Tom
