Hi Corinna
The p.adjusted value is the the p-value adjusted for Multiple
Comparisons.
Enter ?p.adjust to get more of an explanation.

Hallo,
> fit12<-lmFit(qrg[,1:2])
> t12<-toptable(fit12,adjust="fdr",number=25,genelist=qrg$genes[,1])
> t12
ID logFC t P.Value adj.P.Val B
522 PLAU_OP -6.836144 -8.420414 5.589416e-05 0.01212520 2.054965
1555 CD44_WIZ -6.569622 -8.227938 6.510169e-05 0.01212520 1.944046
Can anyone tell me what the difference is between P.Value and
adj.P.Value? I need to analyse microarrays and should say if there exist
differential expressed genes. Which P.Value should I use?
Thanks, Corinna
