Orthogonality ci = 0 [c1i xc2i] = 0 -1 -1 +1 +1 -- ci = 0 -1 +1 -1 +1 -- ci = 0 +1 -1 -1 +1 -- ci = 0
Calculating Orthogonal Contrasts d.f. (single contrast) = 1 S.Sq(contrast) = M.Sq = [ci x Yi]2/nci2]
More Orthogonal Contrasts … Trend Analyses
Aim of Analyses of Variance • Detect significant differences between treatment means. • Determine trends that may exist as a result of varying specific factor levels.
Trend Analyses • The F-value associates with a trend contrast is significant. • All higher order trend contrasts are not significant.
Get more tang from your mustard • Ten yellow mustard (S. alba) cultivars. • Five different nitrogen application rates (50, 75, 100, 125, and 150)
Get more tang from your mustard Linear Cubic Quadratic
Get more tang from your mustard • There is a significant nitrogen effect. • The relationship between yield and nitrogen is significantly linear. • All genotypes follow a linear relationship.
When rabbits come to dinner • Two carrot cultivars (‘Orange Gold’ and ‘Bugs Delight’. • Four seeding rates (1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0 lb/acre). • Three replicates. • TQ #1 p. 155.
