Linear mixed model to study multivariate genotype-environment interactions

# Struct-lmm

[](https://travis-ci.com/limix/struct-lmm) [](https://struct-lmm.readthedocs.io/)

Structured Linear Mixed Model (StructLMM) is a computationally efficient method to test for and characterize loci that interact with multiple environments [1].

This a standalone module that implements the basic functionalities of StructLMM. However, we recommend using StructLMM using [LIMIX2](https://limix.readthedocs.io/en/2.0.0/index.html) as this additionally implements:

• multiple methods for GWAS;

• methods to characterize GxE at specific variants;

• command line interface.
