Error to create a dds DESeq2 object.

Question

[cardon.chc]

Dear bioinformatic comunit,

I am new to using DESeq2, and I have a problem generating a dds object, in which I have the following error.

> dds.rsem <- DESeqDataSetFromTximport(tx.rsem, coldata, design = ~ Tissue + Location + Genotype + Time_point + Genotype:Time_point)
Error in validObject(.Object) :
  invalid class “SummarizedExperiment” object:
    nb of cols in 'assay' (1) must equal nb of rows in 'colData' (132)

However, when I look in my tx.rsem and coldata files look normal with the correct number of cols and rows, both with 132.

I would like to know if someone can give me some help, please?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

No one can help you if they can't see a thing. Post the dimensions and first few lines of tx.rsem and coldata.

Here are the first lines of coldata

Okay...so are you absolutely positive that tx.rsem is in the right format for importing? It looks like your file has only a single column, and the error message suggests the same.

[cardon.chc]

Yes, I am.

Now I did not use some commands that I was using before and it worked. But I am not sure if it is correct, but all the next commands worked well.

I was using the following command which I am not using now.

colnames(tx.rsem$counts) <- sub("hypogaea","I801_L", colnames(tx.rsem$counts)) tx.rsem$counts <- tx.rsem$counts[rownames(coldata)]
