As I am working with a reduced-genome and the "p.adj" take in account all the  windows in the genome, this filter is eliminating all of my windows with differential methylation profile:

Using this command in MEDIPS package, I can do my differencial methylation analysis including de FDR correction and consequently without significant windows results:

mr.edgeR = MEDIPS.meth(MSet1 = MeDIP_AV, MSet2 = MeDIP_C, CSet = CS, p.adj = "fdr", diff.method = "edgeR", MeDIP = F, CNV = F, minRowSum = 10)

On the other hand, if I do this command without FDR filter, I get a fair number of significant windows at the level of 0.005% (~300 windows):

mr.edgeR = MEDIPS.meth(MSet1 = MeDIP_AV, MSet2 = MeDIP_C, CSet = CS, p.adj = "none", diff.method = "edgeR", MeDIP = F, CNV = F, minRowSum = 10)

Then I eliminate the windows that have no methylation coverage in the mr.edgeR (p.adj="none") using this:

mr.edgeR <- mr.edgeR[mr.edgerR$MSets2.counts.mean != c("0"), ]

 

and now I wanna do the manual FDR correction in "mr.edgeR" object

But I don´t know how.

Dear Pertille, indeed, testing a huge amount of genome wide windows causes strong effects by subsequent multiple testing. To avoid many potentially unnecessary tests, MEDIPS allows to set an arbitrary integer to the minRowSum parameter of the MEDIPS.meth() function. I am aware that any value for this parameter will be somewhat arbitrary. Reasonable values depend on your library and reference genome size (please apologise that I cannot give the best recommendation for this parameter). However, MEDIPS will then only consider genomic windows tested for differential coverage when applying multiple testing.
