gomez.multilocsplitplot

Multi-environment trial of rice, split-plot design

Description

Grain yield was measured at 3 locations with 2 reps per location. Within each rep, the main plot was 6 nitrogen fertilizer treatments and the sub plot was 2 rice varieties.

Format

A data frame with 108 observations on the following 5 variables.

loc: location, 3 levels
nitro: nitrogen in kg/ha
rep: replicate, 2 levels
gen: genotype, 2 levels
yield: yield, kg/ha

Examples

library(agridat)

data(gomez.multilocsplitplot)
dat <- gomez.multilocsplitplot
dat$nf <- factor(dat$nitro)

# Gomez figure 8.3
libs(lattice)
xyplot(yield~nitro, dat, group=loc, type=c('p','smooth'), auto.key=TRUE,
       main="gomez.multilocsplitplot")

# AOV
# Be careful to use the right stratum, 'nf' appears in both strata.
# Still not quite the same as Gomez table 8.21
t1 <- terms(yield ~ loc * nf * gen + Error(loc:rep:nf),
            "Error", keep.order=TRUE)
m1 <- aov(t1, data=dat)
summary(m1)

## Not run: 
  # F values are somewhat similar to Gomez Table 8.21
  libs(lme4)
  m2 <- lmer(yield ~ loc*nf*gen + (1|loc/rep/nf), dat)
  anova(m2)
