I'm guessing this is perhaps the `lme` function in pkg:nlme. It's not really an appropriate question for rhelp in any event. See the Posting Guide (link below). > > My model is lme(Y~A*B).

I think most statisticians would advise focussing on model comparisons rather than p-values of individual coefficients. The experts hang out at: https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mixed-models ... and they tend to be more welcoming for "interpretation" questions. Or post to CrossValidated.com where this would be on topic. That group generally tries to avoid purely R questions, but your question is so devoid of actual R (no code and no actual output) that it would probably not be closed for that reason.
