WG2: Biostatistics
Working Group Leader: Kristian Kristensen,
DIAS, Foulum, DK
This group will discuss design of experiments for variety trials - especially
those that involve more factors and/or many varieties. Statistical analyses of
appropriate measures for disease susceptibility and weed competitiveness both
for single trials and a series of trials will be discussed and recommendations
will be given. The statistical analysis of non-normally distributed data and
methods for describing genotype x environment interactions and prediction of
variety performance under specific environmental conditions will be discussed.
The group will also study the statistical analyses of variety mixture
efficacies, which may include some methods for intra-plot competition as well as
meta-analyses comparing data from different designs. The group will act to
ensure that appropriate designs and statistical methods are used within the
network.
