In agridat: Agricultural Datasets

Multi-environment trial of wheat to illustrate stability statistics

Description

Multi-environment trial to illustrate stability statistics

Usage

data("huehn.wheat")

Format

A data frame with 200 observations on the following 3 variables.

gen

genotype

env

environment

yield

yield dt/ha

Details

Yields for a winter-wheat trial of 20 genotypes at 10 environments.

Note: Huehn 1979 does not use genotype-centered data when calculating stability statistics.

Examples

## Not run: 

  library(agridat)
  data(huehn.wheat)
  dat <- huehn.wheat
  
  # Nassar & Huehn, p. 51 "there is no evidence for differences in stability
  # among the 20 varieties".
  libs(gge)
  m1 <- gge(dat, yield ~ gen*env)
  biplot(m1, main="huehn.wheat")
  
  libs(reshape2)
  datm <- acast(dat, gen~env, value.var='yield')

  apply(datm,1,mean) # Gen means match Huehn 1979 table 1
  apply(datm,2,mean) # Env means
  apply(datm, 2, rank) # Ranks match Huehn table 1

  # Huehn 1979 did not use genotype-centered data, and his definition
  # of S2 is different from later papers.

  # I'm not sure where 'huehn' function is found
  # apply(huehn(datm, corrected=FALSE), 2, round,2) # S1 matches Huehn

  # Very close match to Nassar & Huehn 1987 table 4.
