Hello,

An MArrayLM object created with eBayes() from the limma package contains the slot $p.values, which I suppose is used by volcanoplot() to make the volcano plot. Since the volcano plot has log2FC in the x-axis, I suppose volcanoplot() also gets the log2FC values from the MArrayLM object, but how to extract the log2FC values from the MArrayLM object myself?

Thanks!

If fit is the MArrayLM object, then the log2-fold-changes are fit$coefficients[, coef].

See help("MArrayLM-class")
