More precisely, if (X) is a random variable with mean (mu) and standard deviation (sigma), then [P(|X – mu| ge k sigma) le frac {1}{k^2}.] When I was an undergraduate ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: R on The broken bridge between biologists and statisticians. Let’s imagine a field experiment, where different genotypes of khorasan wheat are to be compared under different nitrogen (N) fertilisation systems. Genotypes require bigger plots, with respect to fertilisation treatments and, therefore, the most convenient choice would be to lay-out the experiment as a split-plot, in a randomised complete block design. Genotypes would be randomly allocated to main plots, while fertilisation systems would be randomly allocated to sub-plots. As usual in agricultural research, the experiment should be repeated in different years, in order to explore the environmental variability ... Read More
