Hi
I'm using the hclust function from mva R v 1.8
I've plotted a dendrogram with genenames
e.g.

plot(hclustoutput, labels=genenames etc)

I'm currently using the identify.hclust command:
ClusterID <- identify(hclustoutplut, MAXCLUSTER=60)
which returns

something like:

375
376
377
378
379
380 2.7004349
381 1.8060133 1.1440009
382 0.7630247 3.1794324 2.1269562
383 0.4950094 2.4738040 1.4827588 0.7810937
384 0.9291393 2.2186614 1.1459034 1.0344517 0.6617410
385 1.4570777 2.5765989 1.7992481 1.6056936 1.5644727 1.1153774
386 0.3695838 2.8249040 1.8551363 0.5220643 0.5924702 0.8052963 1.2503008

for each cluster specified.

My question is can I specify the genenames that I used in the original 
plot and return them for each of the clusters I choose rather than the 
information that is returned by default.

many thanks

Jason
