Dear Xiaohui, I suspect you mean more than 2 groups or conditions rather than 2 samples. edgeR already handles any number of groups. If you want to find genes highly expressed in one condition but not in the others, surely you need to make pairwise comparisons between the conditions, and that is exactly what edgeR does. In the next month, we will be adding linear model capabilities to edgeR, but it sounds to me as if the package will already address your problem as it is.
