piepho.cocksfoot {agridat}

Multi-environment trial of cock's foot, heading dates for 25 varieties in 7 years

Description

Multi-environment trial of cock's foot, heading dates for 25 varieties in 7 yearsyears

Usage

data("piepho.cocksfoot")

Format

A data frame with 111 observations on the following 3 variables.

gen

genotype factor, 25 levels

year

year, numeric

date

heading date (days from April 1)

Details

These data are heading dates (days from April 1 to heading) of 25 cock's foot Dactylis glomerata varieties in trials at Hannover, Germany, repeated over seven years. Values are means over replications.

Piepho fits a model similar to Finlay-Wilkinson regression, but with genotype and environment swapped.
