Abstract excerpt
SUMMARY: Genetic research utilizes a decomposition of trait variances and covariances into genetic and environmental parts. Our software package biMM is a computationally efficient implementation of a bivariate linear mixed model for settings where hundreds of traits have been measured on partially overlapping sets of individuals. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Implementation in R freely available at...
