Multi-environment trial of wheat varieties with heteroskedastic yields

Description

Wheat varieties with heteroskedastic yields

Format

A data frame with 52 observations on the following 3 variables.

env

environment, 13 levels

gen

genotype, 4 levels

yield

yield

Details

Yield of 4 varieties of wheat at 13 locations in Oklahoma, USA.

The data was used to explore variability between varieties.

# Matches Piepho 1994 page 143.
