Wheat experiment with diagonal checks
federer.diagcheck.RdWheat experiment augmented with two check varieties in diagonal strips.
Format
A data frame with 180 observations on the following 4 variables.
rowrow
colcolumn
gengenotype, 120 levels
yieldyield
Details
This experiment was conducted by Matthew Reynolds, CIMMYT. There are 180 plots in the field, 60 for the diagonal checks (G121 and G122) and 120 for new varieties.
Federer used this data in multiple papers to illustrate the use of orthogonal polynomials to model field trends that are not related to the genetic effects.
Note: Federer and Wolfinger (2003) provide a SAS program for analysis of this data. However, when the SAS program is used to analyze this data, the results do not match the results given in Federer (1998) nor Federer and Wolfinger (2003). The differences are slight, which suggests a typographical error in the presentation of the data.
The R code below provides results that are consistent with the SAS code of Federer & Wolfinger (2003) when both are applied to this version of the data.
Plot dimensions are not given.
