Genetically Modified and Wild Type Rice Data

Description

The rice data frame has 72 rows and 5 columns. The data are from an experiment that compared wild type (wt) and genetically modified rice plants (ANU843), each with three different chemical treatments (F10, NH4Cl, and NH4NO3).

Usage

data(rice)

Format

This data frame contains the following columns:

PlantNo
a numeric vector
Block
a numeric vector
RootDryMass
a numeric vector
ShootDryMass
a numeric vector
trt
a factor with levels F10, NH4Cl, NH4NO3, F10 +ANU843, NH4Cl +ANU843, NH4NO3 +ANU843
