Dear friends:
I am the beginner of asreml. I am estimating the variance of survival
rate which is from the challenge test data of turbot. Turbot is one of
marine fishies.
this is my model:
survival !bin !probit !wt=0 ~ mu !r animal fullsib 0.2
Is the model right for this analysis? which is right for survival rate
logit or probit link function?
The format of data file is just like this:
animal Sire Dam fullsib survival (binary,0 for death, 1 for survival)
20070028 2006041 20060159 3 0
20070029 2006041 20060159 3 0
