Technical note: an R package for fitting generalized linear mixed models in animal breeding.

Journal of animal science - 1 Feb 2010

Abstract excerpt

Mixed models have been used extensively in quantitative genetics to study continuous and discrete traits. A standard quantitative genetic model proposes that the effects of levels of some random factor (e.g., sire) are correlated accordingly with their relationships. For this reason, routines for mixed models available in standard packages cannot be used for genetic analysis. The pedigreemm package of R was...
