deviation_mean_squares: Deviation mean squares

In toolStability: Tool for Stability Indices Calculation

Deviation mean squares

Description

deviation_mean_squares calculate variance of a genotype across environments.

Usage

deviation_mean_squares(
  data,
  trait,
  genotype,
  environment,
  unit.correct = FALSE
)

Arguments

data	a dataframe containing trait, genotype and environment.
trait	colname of a column containing a numeric vector of interested trait to be analysized.
genotype	colname of a column containing a character or factor vector labeling different genotypic varieties
environment	colname of a column containing a character or factor vector labeling different environments
unit.correct	logical, default is FALSE, returning the stability index with unit equals to squared unit of trait; when TRUE, returning stability index with the unit as same as unit of trait.

Details

Deviation mean squares (Eberhart and Russell, 1966) is calculatd based on regression function. Variety with low stability variance is considered as stable. Equation of deviation mean squares can be found in vignette file.

Value

a data table with deviation mean squares
