Model for fitting longitudinal traits subject to threshold response applied to genetic evaluation for heat tolerance
<p>Abstract</p> <p>A semi-parametric non-linear longitudinal hierarchical model is presented. The model assumes that individual variation exists both in the degree of the linear change of performance (slope) beyond a particular threshold of the independent variable scale and in the...
