ratio test for the effect of plant genotype. I measured traits from plants that received zero aphids. Significant effects (P < 0.05) are in bold.Appendix B. Descriptive statistics for the effects of plant genotype on plant traits.
TABLE B1. Descriptive statistics for the effects of plant
genotype on plant traits.Included are
the range of breed values for each trait, variance explained by plant genotype
(VC), the coefficient of genetic variation (CVg), broad-sense
heritability (H2), and theand P value from a log-likelihood
ratio test for the effect of plant genotype. I measured traits from plants that received zero aphids. Significant effects (P < 0.05) are in bold.
