Hi R Users,
     When I use package lme4 for mixed model analysis, I can't distinguish
the significant and insignificant variables from all random independent
variables.
     Here is my data and result:
Data:

 
Rice<-data.frame(Yield=c(8,7,4,9,7,6,9,8,8,8,7,5,9,9,5,7,7,8,8,8,4,8,6,4,8,8,9),
                 Variety=rep(rep(c("A1","A2","A3"),each=3),3),
                 Stand=rep(c("B1","B2","B3"),9),
                 Block=rep(1:3,each=9))
    Rice.lmer<-lmer(Yield ~ (1|Variety) + (1|Stand) + (1|Block) +
(1|Variety:Stand), data = Rice)

Result:

Linear mixed model fit by REML
Formula: Yield ~ (1 | Variety) + (1 | Stand) + (1 | Block) + (1 |
Variety:Stand)
   Data: Rice
   AIC   BIC logLik deviance REMLdev
 96.25 104.0 -42.12    85.33   84.25
Random effects:
 Groups        Name        Variance Std.Dev.
 Variety:Stand (Intercept) 1.345679 1.16003
 Block         (Intercept) 0.000000 0.00000
 Stand         (Intercept) 0.888889 0.94281
 Variety       (Intercept) 0.024691 0.15714
 Residual                  0.666667 0.81650
Number of obs: 27, groups: Variety:Stand, 9; Block, 3; Stand, 3; Variety, 3

Fixed effects:
            Estimate Std. Error t value
(Intercept)   7.1852     0.6919   10.38

Can you give me some advice for recognizing the significant variables among
random effects above without other  calculating.

    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
