Hi,

I'm interested in incorporating some interaction terms between my
explanatory variables (distance matrices in this case) when I'm using the
function MRM of the package ecodist. The function is doing a multiple
regression on distance matrices. I can get the function to work perfectly on
my explanatory matrices by adding a (+) sign as known. However, when I try
to use the (*) sign or (:) between two terms that I'd like to check the
interaction for, I get same results as with just additive model. Is there
something that I do wrong?
Thanks,

*For example: *

> mrm.S10z_A<- MRM(Adis ~ S10z.st+Distance.st, nperm=100)
> mrm.S10z_A
$coef
                    Adis pval
Int          0.553605282 0.06
S10z.st     -0.002587542 0.86
Distance.st  0.028866573 0.07

$r.squared
         R2        pval 
0.004180399 0.060000000 

$F.test
       F   F.pval 
4.634535 0.060000 

> mrm.S10z_A<- MRM(Adis ~ S10z.st*Distance.st, nperm=100)
> mrm.S10z_A
$coef
                    Adis pval
