heritability - Marker-Based Estimation of Heritability Using Individual Plant
or Plot Data
Implements marker-based estimation of heritability when
observations on genetically identical replicates are available.
These can be either observations on individual plants or
plot-level data in a field trial. Heritability can then be
estimated using a mixed model for the individual plant or plot
data. For comparison, also mixed-model based estimation using
genotypic means and estimation of repeatability with ANOVA are
implemented. For illustration the package contains several
datasets for the model species Arabidopsis thaliana.
