- For ; 1results are the SD among 1000 replicates of ; 2results are the average of reported SE of 200 replicates; 3results are the SD among 200 replicates of ; 4four replicates were fixed at the boundary of 1; with these four estimates removed the SE equaled 0.216; 5Empirical SE from ASReml were based on 200 replicates only, and may therefore deviate from the true SE. With 200 replicates, the SE of the relative empirical SE, i.e. the SE of the ratio of the empirical SE over the true SE, equals = ≈0.05 [13]; thus a 5% error in predicted SE does not indicate a significant discrepancy between predictions and simulations, indicating that 200 replicates yield a limited accuracy of the empirical SE; when predicted is unbiased, the expected absolute relative error equals ≈ 3.5%, and a relative error >9.8% indicates a significant difference between empirical and predicted (P <0.05; two-sided, not accounting for multiple testing).
