Subject: Linear mixed model in lme4
Dear all,
I am a forestry researcher from Chile and I want to use the Lme4 packages for fitting a linear mixed model according this equation:
Y=mu+Female+Male+FemxMale+Clone+e
Where some trees are clones with know family and other are clones with unknow parents, others are family data with both parents know and other are family data with just one parent know.
Is lme4 capable for doing this analysis?
An example of how data looks is here:
Family
Female
Male
Clone
Type of data
AH
FA7
FV7
AH714
Clonal data
AH
FA7
FV7
Full sib progeny
LB
FA7
Unknown
LB315
Clonal data (one parent known)
Unknown
Unknown
Unknown
BA465
Clonal data (unknown family)
BT
FA21
FV50
Full sib progeny
BA
G184
Unknown
OP progeny
I would appreciate any help
Best regards,
Ricardo Dur?n
