Subject: Low sample size problem

Dear List
I have a problem with low sample sizes and request your advice.
I have used TpsDig2 to take 13 landmarks on fish from five different
groups. However, in one group I only have 8 specimens and in another
only 12 and unfortunately I cannot get more of these samples.
I understand that I should not used all 22 partial warp scores to
analyze this. My idea the is then to use the first 6 or 7 relative
warps, but is this ok? Or is this is even advisable or is there a better
(alternative) way of dealing with this problem of more landmarks than
specimens?
Any input is much appreciated!
Best fishes,
Fred Sundstrom
