PERMANOVA analysis using MEGAN

Hi everyone,

I would like to know if it is possible to use MEGAN to perform a PERMANOVA analysis, for example, using the output of a Bray-Curtis distance matrix or a weighted UniFrac distance matrix.

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi @jalcantara,

As far as I remember, MEGAN cannot perform statistical tests like PERMANOVA. However, it can conduct beta diversity analysis based on the distance measures mentioned above.

Let me know if you need more details!

Best,
