Hi Amy,

Many thanks for that reference, I will be looking into all of if this week, also
the limma package references by James and Otto seem to have possibilities,
though the time course example in the Limma instructions is somewhat limited
with only three stages, whereas I am looking at a range of 96 phenotypic data
points. 

Best wishes,
Martin
