  1. aT is a matrix of expression levels across eight genes, S is sex, C is carbohydrate, P is protein, R is replicate vial (random factor). The models differ by having sex as an interactive versus an additive factor
  2. bEstimated degrees of freedom for each model
  3. cGeneralized variance
  4. dPillai’s trace is against model specified in row above
  5. eApproximate F-statistic is against model specified in row above
  6. fP-value for LRT is calculated by parametric bootstrapping using ML fit. Significant P-values are shown in bold
