Re: extra variance component

Dear Mellisa
re: I have been having similar problems.

What would the specifications be for Asreml2, using a model with
y ~ mu fixed1 fixed 2 fixed1:fixed2 !r !{ ran1 fixed1.ran1 !},
                                       !{ide(ran1) fixed1.ide(ran1) !}?

I have had the variance structures set up as:

1 1 4
## This coding is missing the 1 line R structure definition
## which is expected here because of the preceding '1 1'
## So change the '1 1' to '0 0' so that ASReml does not expect to
## read an R structure definition
## OR insert a single line containing a zero viz
0 ## (0 means all records, independent, equal variance)
## so that the R structure is defined

newid 1
newid 0 ID 0.3 #!GP

sCONES.newid 2
sCONES 0 US !GP
1.5
newid

## The previous 4 lines can be presented as
# sCONES.newid 1
# newid 1.5 !GP

ide(newid) 1
ide(newid) 0 ID 1.5 !GP

sCONES.ide(newid) 2
sCONES 0 US !GP
1.5
ide(newid)
## The previous 4 lines can be presented as
# sCONES.ide(newid) 1
# ide(newid) 1.5 !GP

Grace, mercy and peace to you from God our Saviour Jesus Christ
