Hi Mark, sorry for the late response. I am now moving to my new job... When
you use cor.balance() to estimate the correlation matrix, it is able to
handle many variables (genes) at one time. What is returned should be a 497
by 497 correlation matrix. But when you use cor.LRtest() to calculate
P-value, it can only work with a pair of genes at a time. Therefore, you
need to put cor.LRtest() in a loop. For example.

PM <- matrix(NA, 497, 497)
for(i in 1:496)
for(j in (i+1):497)
PM[i,j] <- cor.LRtest() ## data involving only a pair genes   

If you send me your data, I can write the exact code...

Best,

Dongxiao
