Hi,
Genotype is a factor, and R is giving you the default type for that data type.
I changed your data frame to mydata because df() is a function, but see this:
> str(mydata)
'data.frame': 20 obs. of 2 variables:
$ Genotype: Factor w/ 3 levels "0","1","2": 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 ...
$ z : num 0.0703 2.1574 0.514 0.4873 0.1558 ...
It sounds like you might want:
with(mydata, plot(as.numeric(as.character(Genotype)), z))
but if Genotype is best represented as a factor, that may not be the
most informative type of plot.
