TABLE 1.

Variance components estimates and respective standard errors, obtained with the fitting of the univariate linear mixed model for SLT in 2014, 2015, and 2016, and the P-value of the likelihood ratio test for variance components (testing the null hypothesis if the variance component is zero).

Year Variance component Estimate (SE) P
2014 Genotypic 0.664 (0.108) <0.001
Incomplete block within complete block 6.157 (0.970) <0.001
Leaf (within plot) 7.034 (0.176) <0.001
Error 0.606 (0.005)
2015 Genotypic 0.725 (0.104) <0.001
Incomplete block within complete block 6.910 (1.081) <0.001
Leaf (within plot) 5.609 (0.140) <0.001
Error 0.441 (0.003)
2016 Genotypic 0.766 (0.115) <0.001
Incomplete block within complete block 4.308 (0.687) <0.001
Leaf (within plot) 6.623 (0.165) <0.001
Error 0.365 (0.003)

For the fixed-effects factor of the experimental design (complete block), the effect was significant in the 3 years (P < 0.01).
