Hi,

I am using ggplot2 to visualize a differentially expressed gene set generated using ballgown. When I visualize it I see these weird connecting lines (blue) and small blue and tiny red dots. Link to the image :
I don't understand why it is happening. Following is the code I used,

options(ggrepel.max.overlaps = Inf)
ggplot(data=results_genes[results_genes$diffexpressed != "No",], aes(x=de, y=-log10(pval), label=gene_label, color = diffexpressed)) +
  xlab("log2Foldchange") +
  scale_color_manual(name = "Differentially expressed", values=c("blue", "red")) +
  geom_point() +
  theme_minimal() +
  geom_text_repel() +
  geom_vline(xintercept=c(-1, 1), col="red") +
  geom_hline(yintercept=-log10(0.05), col="red") +
  guides(colour = guide_legend(override.aes = list(size=5))) +
  geom_point(data = results_genes[results_genes$diffexpressed == "No",], aes(x=de, y=-log10(pval)), colour = "black")

Thank you in advance.
