In the fixed portion of the model, you would use the typical R conventions of ?:? or ?*?. So, as an example, x1:x2 on the RHS gives only the interaction between two variables and then the use of x1 * x2 gives both the interaction and main effects.

Thank you so much for your response. One question more.



I need estimate the interaction genotype x environment. How should I make this? The interaction between Checks and environment or between Testlines and environments?



Best regards,



Ezequiel Rossi

I can think of a few ways to do this; but perhaps a straightforward way is to estimate environment in a slightly different way than what you have below

lmer(Alt_Planta ~ 1 + (1|Environment) + (1|Bloque) + Checks + (1|Testlines), data = data)

This will give you the marginal variance between environments and then you can get the conditional variance of the conditional mean for each environment.

My model is the follow:

lmer(Alt_Planta ~ Environment + (1|Bloque) + Checks + (1|Testlines), data = data)

where I have two environment and in each environment the design was a randomized complete block design with 3 replications for the Checks (30 genotypes) and the Testlines had one replications.

I need estimate the variance components for each environment and across environment. If you can help me with this, I will thank him very much.

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

Ezequiel Rossi

Well in the old ANOVA-based mixed model framework we talk about
interactions between fixed and random factors, although in modern mixed
models we call those interactions "random slopes." (The coefficient for a
fixed predictor X "depends on" the level of the random factor.) So Ezequiel
could just be using the ANOVA-type terminology (used a lot in DoE) to refer
to random slopes.
