In tamartsi/MetaCor: Performs Stratified SNP-trait analysis and combines the results using the MetaCor method

Description

This function is called by stratLMMTest. It fits an linear mixed model to the trait Y and covariates W based on computed variance components.

Usage

nullMixedModel(Y, W, VC, IDs = NULL, group.var = NULL, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

Y	An n vector of quantitative outcomes.
W	An n by k matrix of k covariates for each of n participants.
VC	Variance components, estimate by estVarComp.
IDs	A vectpr of IDs that should be in the model. Should be a subset of the rownames of W. Will be taken to be W if not provided.
verbose	If TRUE progress will be reported.

Details

Called by stratLMMTest.

Value

A null mixed model list. More details soon.
