Dear ASREML users,
I'm using pedigree information in the form of a generalised inverse
relationship matrix (coefficient of parentage matrix in crop terminology) in a
genotype by environment model.
The model I'm using with BLUEs and weights from single site analysis is:
yld !WT yldwt ~ mu site !r site.giv(gen),
!f mv
1 1 0
2922 0 IDEN !S2==0.3118207 #yld
predict site gen
This model works and the values seem sensible however I'm having trouble
finding examples of others doing this, although there is a example of how to
set up the code in the latest ASREML manual using site and variety factors...
Has anyone done something similar and investigated how the site.gen variance
component changes with the inclusion of the pedigree infromation? And/or
described the theory?
Many thanks
Ky
