lonnquist.maize: Multi-environment trial of maize, half diallel

In kwstat/agridat: Agricultural Datasets

Multi-environment trial of maize, half diallel

Description

Half diallel of maize

Usage

data("lonnquist.maize")

Format

A data frame with 78 observations on the following 3 variables.

p1

parent 1 factor

p2

parent 2 factor

yield

yield

Details

Twelve hybrids were selfed/crossed in a half-diallel design. The data here are means adjusted for block effects. Original experiment was 3 reps at 2 locations in 2 years.
