Hi all,- I want to compare logFC value from the output of exactTest function in edgeR for two different comparisons for each gene. So I have 4 conditions and I am testing if logFC for conditions 1 and 2 in that order is the same as logFC for conditions 3 and 4 in that order. What will be the right statistical test and is there a function in R to do this? Thanks Al [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear Al, Use edgeR glm (glmFit), and do a likelihood ratio test (glmLRT) of the appropriate contrast.
