R Documentation

Variance of specific adaptive ability

Description

This function calculates several stability parameters suggested by Kilchevsky & Khotyleva.

Usage

stability.kilch(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 two objects:

ANOVA

the analysis of variance table

scores

the data frame object of stability analysis results:

• mean mean value

• OAC common adaptive ability

• sigma_ge variance of GE interaction

• sigma_CAC variance of specific adaptive ability

• S_g relative stability
