Covered and naked barleys from the Himalaya : 1. Evidence of multivariate differences between the two types

Abstract:
Both reciprocal averaging and discriminant analysis confirm visual impressions that covered and naked barleys from several areas in the Himalaya differ significantly from each other in a multivariate way. Discriminant analysis also suggests similar differences between the 'occidental' and 'oriental' barleys of Takahashi (1955). Either distinction has implications for our understanding of barley phylogeny and evolution.

Each bar or column in the multiple bar graph represents a data value. These graphs are used primarily in interrelating two or more sets of data. The categories of different kinds of data are listed along the horizontal or x-axis, whereas...
