WGCNA "trait" file format?

I am trying to create co-expression network between lncRNA and RNA but I am not sure if the "trait" file I have made is correct. I have 14 samples with two conditions "Nodules" and "ctrl". Is this format right?

Did you try using this file and it didn't work, that's why you are asking it? Or you didn't try it? Looks ok to me.

It worked. but I was not sure if the results are correct. I am getting an error while generating the heatmap, so I was not confident.

labeledHeatmap(Matrix = moduleTraitCor,
               xLabels = names(datTraits),
               yLabels = names(MEs),
               ySymbols = names(MEs),
               colorLabels = FALSE,
               colors = greenWhiteRed(50),
               textMatrix = textMatrix,
               setStdMargins = FALSE,
               cex.text = 0.5,
               zlim = c(-1,1),
               main = paste("Module-trait relationships"))

Error in colorMatrix[, c] : incorrect number of dimensions

Somethings seems to be wrong in your colormatrix. Try making the heatmap with default colors. Use blueWhiteRed instead of greenWhiteRed.

Still the same error :(

Yes over there also you see it is related to color scale. Could also be related to difference in row names of phenodata and sample ids.

ploting heatmap using complexheatmap alternative to labeledHeatmap

# Define numbers of genes and samples
nGenes = ncol(datExpr);
nSamples = nrow(datExpr);
# Recalculate MEs with color labels
MEs0 = moduleEigengenes(datExpr, dynamicColors)$eigengenes
MEs = orderMEs(MEs0)
moduleTraitCor = cor(MEs, datTraits$group, use = "p");
moduleTraitPvalue = corPvalueStudent(moduleTraitCor, nSamples);


sizeGrWindow(10,6)
# Will display correlations and their p-values
textMatrix = paste(signif(moduleTraitCor, 2), "(",signif(moduleTraitPvalue, 1), ")", sep = "");
dim(textMatrix) = dim(moduleTraitCor)
# Display the correlation values within a heatmap plot
Heatmap(moduleTraitCor,
              name = "Cor",
              column_title="Module-trait relationships",
              rect_gp = gpar(col = "black"),
              cell_fun = function(j, i, x, y, width, height, fill) {
              grid.text(sprintf(textMatrix[i, j]), x, y, gp = gpar(fontsize = 10))})
