A COMPARATIVE STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF RICE CULTIVARS DATA
Keywords:
Rice Cultivars Data, Nitrogen Response Trials, Split-plot, Sub-plot, Grain Yield, Panicle Number, Panicle Weight, 1000 Grain Weight, Days of 50% Flowering and Seed to Seed Days.Abstract
In this paper, rice cultivars data have been analysed by three different statistical techniques viz. Split-plot analysis in RBD, two-factor factorial analysis in RBD and analysis of two-way classified data with several observations per cell. The powers of the tests under different methods of analysis have been calculated. The method of two-way classified data with several observations per cell is found better followed by two-factor factorial technique in RBD and split plot analysis for analyzing the given data.
