stability.er: Regression on Environmental Index

In agrostab: Stability Analysis for Agricultural Research

Description

This function calculates the Erberhart&Rassel's stability parameters and the Dragavtsev's coefficient of multiplicativity.

Usage

stability.er(dataf, res_var, gen_var, env_var, rep_var, plotIt = TRUE)

Arguments

dataf	the name of the data frame containing the data to analyze.
res_var	the response variable.
gen_var	the genotypes variable.
env_var	the environments variable.
rep_var	the replications variable.
plotIt	a logical value specifying if plot should be drawn; default is TRUE

Value

Returns a list of three objects:

ANOVA

the analysis of variance table

scores

the data frame object of stability analysis results:

• bi regression of genotype means on environmental index

• t_value t-values for gypothesis that bi=1

• p_value p-values for gypothesis that bi=1

• s2di individual squared deviation from regression

• pf_value p-values for gypothesis that s2di=0

• ai Dragavtsev's coefficient of multiplicativity

Ij

enviromental indexes
