Dear All, I am trying to perform MANOVA. I have table with 504 columns(species) and 36 rows) with two grouping (season and location) Zx <- Z[c(4:504)] Zxm <- as.matrix(Z) m<- manova(Zxm~Season*location, data=Z)
when I do summary.aov, I get respond for each species but summary.manova summary.manova(m) :" residuals have rank" 24<501. What can it be the reason for this error message? Thank you, Ozgul Below you can see part of the table. name Season location Acetobacter Aerococcus Alishewanella Amaricoccus xls-nord-01 J w 0 0,024078979 0 0 bxls-sud-01 J w 0 0 0 0 brux-nord-04 A w 0 0 0 0 brux-sud-04 A w 0 0 0 0 br-nord-07 Ju w 0 0 0 0 br-sud-07 Ju w 0 0 0 0 b-nord-10 O w 0 0 0 0 bsud-10 O w 0,107836089 0 0,107836089 0,035945363 Z1-01 J u 0 0 0 0,040567951 Z3-01 J u 0 0 0 0 Z5-01 J d 0,023116043 0 0 0 Z7-01 J d 0,014130281 0 0 0 Z9-01 J d 0 0 0 0 Z10-01 J d 0 0 0 0 Z12-01 J d 0 0 0 0 Z1-04 A u 0 0 0 0 Z3-04 A u 0 0 0 0 Z5-04 A d 0 0 0 0 Z7-04 A d 0 0 0 0 Z9-04 A d 0 0,013839873 0 0 Z10-04 A d 0 0 0 0 Z12-04 A d 0 0 0 0 Z1-07 Ju u 0 0 0 0 Z3-07 Ju u 0 0 0 0 Z5-07 Ju d 0 0 0 0 Z7-07 Ju d 0 0 0 0 Z9-07 Ju d 0 0 0 0 Z10-07 Ju d 0 0 0 0 Z12-07 Ju d 0 0,022301517 0 0 Z1-10 O u 0 0 0 0 Z3-10 O u 0 0 0 0 Z5-10 O d 0 0 0 0 Z7-10 O d 0 0 0,052924054 0 Z9-10 O d 0 0 0,035050824 0 Z10-10 O d 0 0 0 0,040783034 Z12-10 O d 0 0 0 0 ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
