Herbicide phytotoxicity data
Description
Herbicide phytotoxicity dataset from Jones & Kerswell (2003).
Format
An object of class data.frame with 580 rows and 3 columns.
Details
The response data (Fv/Fm) Chlorophyll fluorescence measurements of symbiotic dinoflagellates still in the host tissue of the coral (in hospite or in vivo) were measured using a DIVING-PAM chlorophyll fluorometer (Walz) on vertical planes of tissue 2 to 3 cm above the base of the corals, using either a 6 mm (Acropora formosa) or 2 mm (Seriatopora hystrix) fibre-optic probe. Parameters measured were the maximum potential quantum yield (Fv/Fm).
Additional information on each of the herbicides included is available from the original publication Jones & Kerswell (2003).
The columns are as follows:
- herbicide
The herbicide (chr).
- concentration
The treatment concentration in µg / L (dbl).
- fvfm
Maximum effective quantum yield (dbl).
