Table 2. Comparison of means and variance of disease severity scores from two F1 mapping populations (PIO and AFX) inoculated with Verticillium alfalfae.
Population | No.* | Mean | Standard error | Levene's test for equality of variances | T-test for equality of means# |
PIO | 188 | 2.75 | 0.08 | p = 0.513 | p = 0.08 |
AFX | 164 | 2.54 | 0.08 |
Note: “*”, number of individuals in each population. “#”, means of disease severity scores.
