Abstract
The purpose of the current study was to appraise desirable associations between allele frequencies
and environmental variables for a set of North African durum wheat landraces using latent
factor mixed models. Speci cally:
To examine the correlation, covariance and variance structure of the data.
To assess probable confounding e ects which could impact results interpretation.
To assay the association between allele frequencies and environmental variables after correction
of latent factors.
