an Agronomist Wants to Compare the Crop Yield

question 67

Short Answer

Instruction 11-7
An agronomist wants to compare the crop yield of three varieties of chickpea seeds. She plants 15 fields, five with each variety. She then measures the crop yield in bushels per acre. Treating this as a completely randomised design, the results are presented in the table that follows.
$\begin{array}{rrrr}\text { Trial}& \text { Smith }& \text { Walsh}& \text { Trevor }\\\hline1 & 11.1 & 19.0 & 14.6 \\2 & 13.5 & 18.0 & 15.7 \\3 & 15.3 & 19.8 & 16.8 \\4 & 14.6 & 19.6 & 16.7 \\5 & 9.8 & 16.6 & 15.2\end{array}$
-Referring to Instruction 11-7,what is the value of the F test statistic for testing the block effects?

Definitions:

D16S539 9,9 Repeat

Represents a specific allele pattern seen in DNA fragment analysis, indicative of genetic markers used in forensic and genetic studies.

TPOX 12,12 Repeat

Indicates a specific allele pattern in DNA profiling, referring to the number of repeats of a particular short tandem repeat (STR) loci on chromosomes, used in genetic fingerprinting.

D16S539 10,11 Repeat

A genetic variation or microsatellite found in the human genome, specifically within the D16S539 locus, used in forensic and genetic studies.

TPOX 11,12 Repeat

A term possibly related to a genetic marker or sequence, but without specific context, it's unclear. Response would require more specific details.
