The variance-covariance structure of the residuals is assumed to be diagonal and heteroskedastic. The testing procedure for homogeneity of family components is based on the ratio of maximized log-restricted likelihoods for the reduced hypothesis of homogeneity and saturated models. An expectation-maximization EM algorithm is proposed for calculating restricted maximum likelihood REML estimates of the residual and between-family components of variance and covariance. The EM formulae to implement this are iterative and use the classical analysis of variance ANOVA statistics ie the between- and within-family sums of squares and cross-products. They can be applied both to the saturated and reduced models and guarantee the solutions to be in the parameter space. Procedures presented in this paper are illustrated with the analysis of 5 vegetative and reproductive traits recorded in an experiment on 20 full-sib families of black medic Medicago lupulina L tested in 3 environments. Application to pure maximum likelihood procedures extension to unbalanced designs and comparison with approaches relying on alternative models are also discussed. genotype X environment interaction
