[R] Determining variance components of classed covariates

Hi - I am interested in solving variance components for the data below with respect to the response variable, Expression within R. However, the covariates aren't independent and they also have a class (of which the total variance explained by covariates in that class I am most interested in).

You might want to try the https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mixed-models list next time for mixed model questions. At any rate the Variance column figures are variances, not percentages. We can use anova with REML=FALSE to make comparisons among models. Below we find that removing the
