Multivariate statistical analysis of yield, its components and characters above the flag leaf node in spring rye
1Department of Plant Science, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
Abstract:
The relationships between yield and its components and structures above the flag leaf node were studied in an 8 X 8 diallel of spring rye (Secale cereale L.) by the use of multivariate statistical procedures. Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that flag leaf characters did not account for significant amounts of variability in yield or its components. Principal component analysis showed no association between yield (and its components) and flag leaf characters while the canonical correlation between the two sets of characters was significant.

01:25Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...
