The use of the „studentized range” in connection with an analysis of variance

Summary A numerical example is given of the analysis of variance applied on yields per cabbage.After having concluded from a F-test, that the varieties show significant differences, a discussion is given of a new method to decidewhich varieties are different.The t-test though in frequent use, gives wrong conclusions. The method indicated in this article diverges from those discussed byNewman andTukey and is I suppose the more plausible.Samenvatting Het gebruik van de studentized range in verband met de variatieanalyse Een rekenvoorbeeld wordt gegeven van de variatieanalyse toegepast op spitskoolopbrengstcijfers.Na op grond van een F-test te hebben geconcludeerd dat de rassen duidelijke verschillen tonen, wordt een nieuwe methode besproken om uit te makenwelke rassen verschillen. Hoewel de t-test hiertoe geregeld gebruikt wordt geeft deze verkeerde uitkomsten. De aangegeven methode wijkt af van die welke doorNewman enTukey worden besproken en lijkt mij de meest voor de hand liggende van de drie.     

Voor de practische kweker bruikbare methoden van resistentie-onderzoek

Summary In breeding new varieties it will be necessary in most cases to test the degree of resistance of the material by means of artificial infection. After discussing with plant breeders and phytopathologists the question of the research on disease resistance now being done in the Netherlands the Department of Research on Disease Resistance of the Institute for Phytopathological Research at Wageningen have found that the methods mentioned in addendum I are reliable enough to be used by the breeders themselves, though with the aid of the Department.The methods applied in special institutes because they are too complicated for the breeders, are mentioned in addendum II; they are wart-disease testing in potatoes, virus testing in strawberries and raspberries.Under III are treated the methods that are as yet not sufliciently developed to be applied successfully either by institutes or by breeders, and which are now being investigated in the Netherlands.
