[BioC] [SOLVED] Factorial experiment: No degree of freedom in maanova

[Marcelo Laia]

Ciao Alessandro,

I figured out that we can do a factorial analysis in two steps:

First, make full model object with all main effects, interactions and
biological replicate effects.

     Use matest (from maanova package) to test the interactions effects.

Second, make a model object without interactions effects (only main
and biological replicate effects).

     Use matest (from maanova package) to test the main effects.

I have been used mixed model in both.

I hope this help you, but, if you have another questions, please, ask me!

Bests

Marcelo
