Running this process using the DrosophilaAgingExample sample setting generates the tabbed Results window shown below. Refer to the One-Way ANOVA process description for more information. Output from the process is organized into tabs. Each tab contains one or more plots, data panels, data filters, and so on. that facilitate your analysis.
The Results window contains the following panes:
Tabs
This pane enables you to access and view the output plots and associated data sets on each tab. Use the drop-down menu to view the tab in the Tab Viewer pane, open the tab in a new window, or remove the tab and its contents from the Tab Viewer pane.
The following tabs are generated by this process:
•
Results: This tab shows the primary results from the analysis, including volcano plots and various analyses on least squares means
SAS Output: This is a text-based output directly from SAS PROC UNIVARIATE. Refer to the documentation for SAS PROC UNIVARIATE for more information.

Additional Information About this Analysis
Both ANOVA and One-Way ANOVA in JMP G use standard linear mixed model approaches based on normal theory to calculate the resulting t-and F-tests. When differences occur with results from other software packages, the typical place to look is in the degrees of freedom approximation used behind the t-and F-tests. Different approximations for these are possible and there is not necessarily one best answer, especially if there are missing data. If you want to break things down further, consider the numerator and denominator of a specific single-degree-of-freedom t-test for a few select genes to really get to the bottom of it.
One suggestion for assessing the results of these processes is transforming the p-values to -log10 scale and plotting them versus each other. They should be highly correlated although not perfectly so, providing basically the same ordering of the genes. If they are radically different, something may be off in the model setup itself in terms of the factors specified. Contact JMP Tech support for help in deciphering exactly what is going on in your situation.
One Way ANOVA in JMPG performs its calculations directly in a SAS data step for speed, although it is limited to one-way designs with one blocking factor. Note though that multi-way designs can be converted to one-way by creating a single super factor that has all possible levels. ANOVA in JMPG calls SAS PROC MIXED with BY groups.
You can also use the -log2fold change itself (numerator of t-statistic) to sort genes for reproducibility. Those with larger fold changes are typically more reproducible. In volcano plots, look for genes in the upper left and right corners.
