It seems to me that the method for accounting for shared environmental influences within families that Yang et al. propose in a recent chapter (in Genome-Wide Association Studies and Genomic Prediction) could also be extended to account for dominance effects if one's sample includes MZ and DZ twins. The off-diagonal elements for each family block would no longer be 1. Does that seem reasonable?

Ah. That suggests something even better than my original idea -- thanks!
