[BioC] results interpretation

Dear Dr. Michael,

I’m using DESeq2 to compare data from different treatments to find possible bioindicators. I applied the DESeq function by two ways:

A) treatmentdeseq <- phyloseq_to_deseq2(biom_otu_tax, ~treatment)

B) treatmentdeseq2<- phyloseq_to_deseq2(biom_otu_tax, ~treatment + condition x)

The intercept in both is the same, but the comparisons among treatments are (a bit) different when I call A and B. In B, does the condition exert some influence on analysis comparing treatments?
Could you explain why?

Thanks,
Leonardo M. Pitombo
