Permanova for Beta diversity

Please, can anyone help with PERMANOVA using mothur

In mothur the command is called amova and it’s shown in the MiSeq SOP wiki page. What are you struggling to do?

Hello Schloss,

Thanks for a prompt response. I wanted to use PERMANOVA to account for differences in the beta diversity of the metagenomic dataset.

Sincerely,

Bukola

In cases were PERMANOVA revealed significant differences between pairs of samples, PERMDISP was applied to determine if such differences arose from differences in dispersion of samples. How we can use PERMDISP in mothur?

if i recall correctly, homova in mothur is the same as permdisp
