Two factor full factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA) of seed shape traits.
| Trait (unit) | Code | Variety (V) | Treatment (T) | V × T | Error | GM | CV% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weight (g) | WT | 41.80 | 48.76 | 4.38 | 5.06 | 0.59 | 5.94 |
| Area (mm2) | A | 75.05 | 9.76 | 6.46 | 8.73 | 20.45 | 12.64 |
| Perimeter (mm) | P | 73.09 | 12.04 | 5.16 | 9.71 | 19.24 | 6.73 |
| Length (mm) | L | 79.77 | 5.99 | 4.87 | 9.36 | 7.29 | 6.46 |
| Width (mm) | W | 67.60 | 16.74 | 5.91 | 9.74 | 3.53 | 6.83 |
| Length-to-width-ratio | LWR | 60.81 | 14.56 | 8.89 | 15.74 | 2.09 | 3.94 |
| Circularity | CS | 59.62 | 5.59 | 11.63 | 23.16 | 0.68 | 3.23 |
| Distance (mm) | DS | 47.00 | 8.46 | 17.48 | 27.05 | 0.56 | 17.22 |
Variation explained by three known sources of variation (V, T, VxT) was significant (p-value < 0.001) in all studied traits. GM is grand mean and CV% is percentage of coefficient of variation of the overall analysis of variance (ANOVA) model.
