Good Afternoon, My name is Gabriel, I'm doing an analysis if there is increase or decrease in dependence on the mutated genes, using 3 or more genes using the fisher exact test.I performed with success an analysis for two genes using fisher.test( ). example of the 2x2 contigency table: Gene A mutated | Gene A normalGene B mutated| 26 | 12--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Gene B normal | 10 | 50 Now I'm wondering how can I perform the analysis for 3 genes (and construct the contigency table), as follows: Gene A mutated, Gene A normal, Gene B mutated, Gene B normal, Gene C mutated and Gene C normal. How do I perform a fisher test using fisher.test( ) function using this data (3x3 contigency table)?Can someone help me ? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
