Dear
Eloise,
MorphoJ has a very
comprehensive User's guide (http://www.flywings.org.uk/MorphoJ_guide/frameset.htm?index.htm).
You can check how to combine two datasets in the "Preliminaries menu/Combine
datasets" section.
Both
datasets must have the same number and order of the landmarks, which I guess
they do. Afterwards it's very easy (follow the guidelines) to make one dataset
out of two. When you have a combined dataset, you can do for example a PCA or DA
with two groups.
I am sure,
you'll manage it. Write, if you have any
problems.
Good
luck!
Tina

Greetings,
I am currently using TPS and
MorphoJ software to try to do a shape comparison on stingray teeth between
mating season and non mating season. What would be the procedure to show results
that the two seasons are similar or different from one another? I have photos
and landmarks on TPS files. currently mating season and non mating season are
two completely different files. Should I have them as one file or should I keep
them seperate? should I load the files into morpho J separately or as one?
Currently I have them in Two different data sets in MorphoJ but under the same
project tree. How can I compare those 2 data sets to show if there is a
difference or not? I have done a PCA test for each and I know I can either use
CVA or DFA but how or which to use I am not quite sure. A somewhat step by stem
procedure and a small explanation would be greatly appreciated if possible. I am
have a hard time understanding the correct procedure of morphoJ since I am new
to the software. Oh and I'm an undergrad.
Thank
you
