I would like to know the clear distinction between a general linear model and linear mixed model. After sourcing for materials i still find it confusing. In addition, i would like to know the requirement for one to use either of the two during analysis. I am planning to work on vernalization and phtoperiod genes and i would have at least three planting date in a year and also repeat this the second year. So i dont still know the clear cut basis for choosing between general linear model and linear mixed model.

But for Linear mixed model, the estimate coefficient (beta) is different for each variable due to mix effect like : subject, hospital  .
