Documentation for limma-voom analysis of RNA-seq data uses eBayes to perform pairwise differential expression tests. For more complex experimental designs, would it be reasonable to use edgeR's GLM method to call DE genes from dge objects containing voom transformed counts?
Indeed,
voom
will happily generate negative log-expression values when the counts are low relative to the library size. It would be completely nonsensical to try to treat such values as counts in an edgeR analysis.
