Dear all,

I'm writing my manuscript to publish after analysis my final data with
ANOVA, ANCOVA, MANCOVA. In a section of my result, I did correlation of my
data (2 categirical factors with 2 levels: Quantity & Quality; 2 dependent
var: Irid.area & Casa.PC1, and 1 co-var: SL). But as some traits (here
Irid.area) are significantly influenced by the covariate (standard length,
SL), I need to use the partial correlation. I know how to calculate it with
JMP, but as I used R to analyse all of my data (first time in my life) for
this manuscript, can anyone help me to find a solution for this problem? I
got some libraries to calculate it (e.g. ppcor, ggm, etc.), but none of
them fit to my required analysis (fitting covariate and subset group) in
the model.

Any help will be very much appreciated.
