Effect of Plot Shape on Variability in Smith's Variance Law
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 October 2008
Summary
Fairfield Smith's variance law is extended to study simultaneously the effect of plot size and its rectangularity (which quantifies shape) on variance. This model is fitted to two seasons' data on sorghum grain yield generated from uniformity trials under rainfed conditions. Some implications of the fitted model are discussed.
