Hello all, 
 
I am an undergraduate, so bare with me if I don't make complete sense! 
 
I have performed a permanova using the function Adonis (vegan), to test for 
significant difference in OTU datasets from different species (n=5) at 
different sites (n=6) with a total of 20 libraries (unbalanced). I have got a 
significant result, but I would like to know which species/ sites are causing 
this result.
 
adonis(formula = vegdist(comm, method = "bray") ~ Species, data = metadata, 
strata = Site) 
 
I have heard you can run multiple adonis tests, and then adjust the P value 
(which correction?), although I am not sure my reduced datasets meet the 
assumptions, or if the permutations produce a meaningful result at such a low 
number.  
 
Does anyone know how to get around this, or if I should be using a different 
test for this data? 
 
Thank you in advance, 
 
Hazel Knipe
