boxplot(log2(paired_counts+1), las = 2, outline = F, col = c("red", "blue"))

enter image description here

how to solve this, does any body know? i'm really new to R

you can reproduce by below code

  a <- c("TCGA-38-4625-01A","TCGA-38-4625-11A")
    b <-  data.frame(10120,990)
    colnames(b) <- a
    boxplot(log2(b+1), las = 2, outline = F, col = c("red", "blue"))

Set a larger bottom (first) margin and plot again, e.g.:

par(mar = c(9, 3, 2, 1))  # bottom, left, top, right
boxplot(log2(paired_counts+1), las = 2, outline = F, col = c("red", "blue"))

Use a higher value than 9 if the x labels are still not complete.

This is a quick solution. Better go to ggplot2, let me know if you need help with it

a <- c("TCGA-38-4625-01A","TCGA-38-4625-11A")
b <-  data.frame(10120,990)
colnames(b) <- a


par(cex.axis=0.5)
boxplot(log2(b+1), las = 2, outline = F, col = c("red", "blue"))
