Dear all, 

I'm testing the effect of species and sex in my sample by using the principal 
component scores of a PCA analysis. 
I have 30 PCs and I tried to see if there is any significant difference from 
males to females, given that there is a significant effect of phylogeny (factor 
with several species). 
I didi it like this: 

Y<-PCA$pc.scores[,1:30] 
fit <- manova(Y ~ sp*sex) 
summary(fit, test="Wilks") 

I get a barely significant p-value for the effect of sex and I'd like to know 
for which of the species there is a difference between males and females. 
I tried TukeyHSD(fit) but I get the following error: 

Error in model.tables.aov(x, "means") : 
'model.tables' is not implemented for multiple responses 

So this has to do with the fact that I have a multivariate independent 
variable. Is there an alternative function to this? 

Thanks in advance, 
Sérgio.
