Checking phenotypes...
Individual IDs (strings) are provided in the first column of the phenotypic data.
Phenotypes for all traits included in the model for individual a7 in the row 5 are missing. This record is deleted.
The number of observations with both genotypes and phenotypes used in the analysis is 4.
The number of observations with both phenotype and pedigree information used in the analysis is 4.
Missing values are found in independent variables: dam.
The prior for marker effects variance is calculated from the genetic variance and π.
The mean of the prior for the marker effects variance is: 0.492462
