## Create variable distribution comparison plot

### Description

Create variable distribution plots between 2 groups of taxa for a selected gene.

### Usage

    varDistTaxPlot(data, plotParameters)

### Arguments

`data` | dataframe for plotting. Last column indicates what type of taxon group (in- or out-group). The first (or first 2) column contains values of the variables. See ?dataVarDistTaxGroup
`plotParameters` | plot parameters, including size of x-axis, y-axis, legend and title; position of legend ("right", "bottom" or "none"); mean/median point; names of in-group and out-group; and plot title. NOTE: Leave blank or NULL to use default values.

Distribution plots as a grob (gtable) object. Use grid.draw to plot.
