What is an augmented design? • A replicated check experiment augmented by unreplicated entries. • Step 1: Start with a field subdivided into plots
What is an augmented design? • A replicated check experiment augmented by unreplicated entries. • Step 2: Divide plots into blocks
What is an augmented design? • A replicated check experiment augmented by unreplicated entries. • Step 3: Randomly place checks in each block • We now have 6 replicates of a randomized complete block design (RCBD).
What is an augmented design? • A replicated check experiment augmented by unreplicated entries. • Step 4: Fill in empty plots with unique entries (genotypes).
Purpose of Augmented Designs • Why use an augmented design? • Cost effective • Limited seed quantities or resources • Increase efficiency of genetic gains • Goal is to predict the true value of the genotype by adjusting for spatial effects. • Spatial effects can include soil fertility, field gradients, physical soil properties, management practices, biological competition.
BLUPs • Best linear unbiased predictors • Purpose is to estimate the random effects and provide an adjusted dependent variable. • In augmented designs, the random effects are usually related to spatial correction • Ex: yield = µ + entry(block) + check • Entry is nested within block and is treated as a random effect • Check is treated as a fixed effect and is used to model and then remove field effects.
Modeling Spatial Effects • Model 1: See paper, PROC MIXED for Recovering Both Interblocking and Intervariety Information • Yield = µ + treatn + rep + block(rep) + treat*new + Ɛ • Treatn (fixed) = Individual checks, entries bulked into one treatment • i.e. check1, check2, check 3, all non-check entries • Treat*new (random) = New entries (individually)
Modeling Spatial Effects • Yield = µ + treatn + rep + block(rep) + treat*new + Ɛ • Rep and block(rep) are random effects Block 1 Block 2 Block 3 Block 4 Block 5 Block 6 Rep 1 Rep 2 Rep 3

Modeling Spatial Effects • Model 2: See paper, Other Augmented Designs • Grain weight = µ + WF + treatn + WR+treat*new • WF = Orthogonal polynomials treated as fixed • WR= Orthogonal polynomials treated as random
Orthogonal Polynomials • Orthogonal polynomials are used to detect effects that fit the given polynomial structure. • Final estimates are corrected using the covariance of the plot with the effect of the orthogonal polynomial. • GLM select is used to identify which orthogonal polynomials are significant.
