The [Volcano plot]({% link topics/transcriptomics/tutorials/rna-seq-viz-with-volcanoplot/tutorial.md %}) tutorial introduced volcano plots and showed how they can be easily generated with the Galaxy Volcano plot tool. This new tutorial shows how you can customise a plot using the R script output from the tool and RStudio in Galaxy. A short video for the tutorial is also available on YouTube, created for the GCC2021 Training week. Happy plotting!
