Chlorsulfuron Data
Description
The chlorsulfuron
data frame has 51 rows and 3 columns.
Bioassay on the action of the herbicide chlorsulfuron on the callus area of colonies of Brassica napus L. The experiment consists of 51 measurements for 10 different dose levels. The design is unbalanced: the number of replicates per dose varies from a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 8.
Usage
data(chlorsulfuron)
Format
This data frame contains the following columns:
group
-
indicator variable for each tested dose;
dose
-
the tested dose (nmol/l);
area
-
the callus area (
mm^2
).
