Hide the up legend in Manhattan plot by gProfiler

Hi, I'm recently i started to using gprofiler (https://biit.cs.ut.ee/gprofiler/page/r), I made a graph with the gostplot function and I want to remove the legend "query_1", I tried modifying the title using layout (title = "UP genes"), but that don´t solve it.

Someone know how to remove or hide the legend. Thank you so much

This is my plot

Looks like it might be a facet label. Try removing it using the ggplot theme function.

p <- p + theme(strip.text=element_blank())

This assumes your plot is saved as variable p.

Hi! You can rename your gene list(s) in the gost() function by using a named list as a query gene list. For example,

gostres = gost(query = list("UP genes" = c("X:1000:1000000", "rs17396340", "GO:0005005", "ENSG00000156103", "NLRP1")))
gostplot(gostres)

You can have multiple gene lists with your own names there, and then these are the names that are used in the other functions, including gostplot().
