MendelPlots.jl is a Julia package for generating common plots from results of genome-wide association studies (GWAS). It can currently create Manhattan Plots and QQ Plots.

**MendelPlots** is a plotting and data visualization system written in [Julia](http://julialang.org/). It uses [Gadfly](https://github.com/GiovineItalia/Gadfly.jl) as the backend, which is influenced by Grammar of Graphics Style programming and Hadley Wickham's [ggplot2](http://ggplot2.org/)

This package is registered in the default Julia package registry, and can be installed through standard package installation procedure: e.g., running the following code in Julia REPL.
```julia
using Pkg
pkg"add MendelPlots"
```
