resampGlmer3: Bootstrap components for non-normal data 3

Description

Extracts additive genetic, non-additive genetic, and maternal variance components from a generalized linear mixed-effect model using the glmer function of the lme4 package. Model random effects are dam, sire, dam by sire, and any additional fixed and/or random effects.

Usage

resampGlmer3(resamp, dam, sire, response, fam_link, start, end, remain, quasi = F)

Arguments

resamp

Data frame of bootstrap resampled data.

dam

Column name containing dam(female) parent identity information.

sire

Column name containing sire(male) parent identity information.

response

Column name containing the offspring (response) phenotype values.

fam_link

The family and link in family(link) format. Supported options are binomial(logit), binomial(probit), poisson(log), and poisson (sqrt).

start

Starting model number.

end

Ending model number.

remain

Remaining formula using lme4 package format with # sign (see column names), e.g. fixed# + (1|random#).

quasi

Incorporate overdispersion or quasi-error structure.

Value

A data frame with columns containing the raw variance components for dam, sire, dam by sire, residual, total, additive genetic, non-additive genetic, and maternal. Also columns containing the raw variance components for remaining formula components. The number of rows in the data frame matches the number of iterations in the resampled data set and each row represents a model number.

Details

Used for bootstrap resampled data set produced using resampRepli or resampFamily. Laplace approximation parameter estimation is used, which is a true likelihood method (Bolker et al. 2009). For the overdispersion option, an observation-level random effect is added to the model (Atkins et al. 2013). Extracts the dam, sire, dam, and dam by sire variance components. Extracts any additional fixed effect and random effect variance components. The fixed-effect variance component is as a single group using the method described by Nakagawa and Schielzeth (2013). The residual variance component for the fam_links are described by Nakagawa and Schielzeth (2010, 2013). Calculates the total variance component. Calculates the additive genetic, non-additive genetic, and maternal variance components (see Lynch and Walsh 1998, p. 603).
