Do the lines > soilgroup -missing > treatment:variety:soilgroup - missing Actually appear in your output? If so, I have no idea. But if the terms are simply absent, one possibility is that soilgroup is completely confounded with an earlier factor in the model and therefore unidentifiable. aov seems fairly tolerant of that in one sense - instead of throwing an error and stopping it tells you what it can identify and leaves out anything it can't.
