fitTD | R Documentation |
Perform REML analysis given a specific experimental design using either SpATS, lme4 or asreml. SpATS is used as a default method when row coordinates (rowCoord) and column coordinates (colCoord) are present, lme4 otherwise. See details for the exact models fitted.

An object of class |
trials |
A character vector specifying the trials for which the models should be fitted. |
design |
A character string specifying the experimental design. Either
"ibd" (incomplete block design), "res.ibd" (resolvable incomplete block
design), "rcbd" (randomized complete block design), "rowcol" (row column
design) or "res.rowcol" (resolvable row column design). Can be ignored when
the trial design is specified in the meta data (see |
traits |
A character vector specifying the traits for which the models should be fitted. |
what |
A character vector specifying whether "genotype" should be fitted as fixed or random effect. If not specified, both models are fitted. |
covariates |
A character vector specifying covariates to be fitted as extra fixed effects in the model. |
useCheckId |
Should checkId be used as a fixed effect in the model? |
spatial |
Should spatial models be tried? Spatial models can
only be fitted with SpATS and asreml. If SpATS is used for modeling, only
spatial models can be fitted and spatial is always set to |
engine |
A character string specifying the name of the mixed modeling engine to use, either "SpATS", "lme4" or "asreml." For spatial models, "SpaTS" is used as default, for other models "lme4". |
control |
An optional list with control parameters to be passed to the
actual fitting functions. Currently |

The actual model fitted depends on the design. For the supported designs, the following models are used:
Design | Code | Model fitted |
incomplete block design | ibd | trait = subBlock + genotype + \epsilon |
resolvable incomplete block design | res.ibd | trait = repId + repId:subBlock + genotype + \epsilon |
randomized complete block design | rcbd | trait = repId + genotype + \epsilon |
row column design | rowcol | trait = rowId + colId + genotype + \epsilon |
resolvable row column design | res.rowcol | trait = repId + repId:rowId + repId:colId + genotype + \epsilon |
In the models above, fixed effects are indicated in italics whereas random
effects are indicated in bold. genotype can be fitted as fixed or as
random effect depending on the value of the parameter what
. Extra
fixed effects may be fitted using the parameter covariates
.
If SpATS
is used as modeling engine, an extra spatial term is always
included in the model. This term is constructed using the function
PSANOVA
from the SpATS package as
PSANOVA(colCoord, rowCoord, nseg = nSeg, nest.div = 2)
where
nSeg = (number of columns / 2, number of rows / 2)
. nseg and
nest.div can be modified using the control
parameter.
When asreml
is used for modeling and spatial
is TRUE
seven models are fitted with different random terms and covariance structure.
The best model is determined based on a goodness-of-fit criterion, either
AIC or BIC. This can be set using the control parameter criterion
,
default is AIC.
The fitted random terms depend on the structure of the data. If the trial
has a regular structure, i.e. all replicates appear the same amount of times
in the trial, the following combinations of random and spatial terms are
fitted:
Random part | Spatial part |
random effects based on design | none |
random effects based on design | AR1(rowId):colId |
random effects based on design | rowId:AR1(colId) |
random effects based on design | AR1(rowId):ar1(colId) |
random effects based on design + nugget | AR1(rowId):colId |
random effects based on design + nugget | rowId:AR1(colId) |
random effects based on design + nugget | AR1(rowId):AR1(colId) |
If the design is not regular the following combinations of random and spatial terms are fitted:
Random part | Spatial part |
random effects based on design | none |
random effects based on design | exp(rowCoord):colCoord |
random effects based on design | rowCoord:exp(colCoord) |
random effects based on design | iexp(rowCoord, colCoord) |
random effects based on design + nugget | exp(rowCoord):colCoord |
random effects based on design + nugget | rowCoord:exp(colCoord) |
random effects based on design + nugget | iexp(rowCoord,colCoord) |
