Best linear unbiased estimators and SEs for main effect of crop and plant traits measured in Chile (Experiment 2) under two plant population densities (3 and 10 plants m–2) and irrigation treatments (WD1=621 mm and WD2=408 mm) for double (DX) and single (SX) hybrids
| Population | Irrigation | Hybrid group | TLN | Size of ear leaf | Time to anthesis | ASI |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (plants m-2) | (count) | (cm2) | (d) | (d) | ||

Size of ear leaf and TLN are the size of the largest leaf and the total number of leaves on the main stem, ASI is anthesis–silking interval.
