[R] Help With ANOVA

Hi I needed some help with ANOVA

I have a problem with My ANOVA
analysis. I have a dataset with a known ANOVA p-value, however I can
not seem to re-create it in R.

I have created a list (zzzanova) which contains
1)Intensity Values
2)Group Number (6 Different Groups)
3)Sample Number (54 different samples)
this is created by the script in Appendix 1

I then conduct ANOVA with the command
> zzz.aov <- aov(Intensity ~ Group, data = zzzanova)

I get a p-value of
Pr(>F)1 
0.9483218 

The
expected p-value is 0.00490 so I feel I maybe using ANOVA incorrectly
or have put in a wrong formula. I am trying to do an ANOVA analysis
across all 6 Groups. Is there something wrong with my formula. But I think I
have made a mistake in the formula rather than anything else.
