[igraph] Extracting subnets automatically for further analysis based on metric scores |

Hello all,
I have a query I hope that you could help me with. After creating my network,
and calculating a number of metrics, I would then like to automatically extract
the subnets of the nodes with the 10 lowest ranks for each ( I have ranked the
nodes with the highest scores 1, so would like those nodes from 1 to 10). This
has been done as such:
wdrank1 <- rank(-wd1s)
brank1 <- rank(-wb1s)
crank1 <- rank(-c1s)
hrank1 <- rank(-h1s)
erank1 <- rank(-e1s)
lrank1 <- rank(-l1s)
drank1 <- rank(-d1s)
The names for these nodes are gene symbols, and the output of each of these
objects is the list of all the genes with their ranks for that category.
Previously I have used a crude approach to extract the subnets; seeing which
gene symbols are the top ten, and then doing a bit of trial and error to find
the node numerical ID that matches the gene symbol. What I would like is to
take the top 10 gene symbols for each category, and then create the subnets for
these 10 gene symbols automatically. Then, it would be helpful to output this
to an edgelist with the nodes as gene symbols and not node numerical IDs, so
that these lists can then be fed to a program for gene set enrichment analysis.
Is there a way then that I can do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Alex
