Hello, Some colleagues and I are running some phylogenetic ANOVAS using the geiger package. In some of the analyses we get the same phylogentic p-value (very small p-value) even though the F-statistic differs between the two analyses, albeit it being relatively high in both instances. We were wondering why this arises, to get better grip on how the analysis works. We thought it may have to do with the randomizations to calculate the phylogenetic p-value. Or that the F-statistics are quite high... Below are two examples :
