Automating Uniformity Trials to Optimize Precision of Agronomic Field Trials [PDF]
Agronomy, 2021 Plot size has an important impact on variation among plots in agronomic field trials, but is rarely considered during the design process. Uniformity trials can inform a researcher about underlying variance, but are seldom used due to their laborious ...

A linear model for uniformity trial experiments
Statistics in Transition, 2013 Uniformity trial experiments are required to assess fertility variation in agricultural land. Several models have appeared in literature, of which Fairfield Smith’s Variance Law assuming a nonlinear relationship between the coefficient of variation (C.V.) and a plot size has been extensively used in uniformity trial studies.

Uniformity trials size for estimating cherry tomato plot size
Revista Ciência Agronômica, 2018 The aim of this study was to determine how the size of the uniformity trial influences the estimation of cherry tomato plot size. The size of plot required to evaluate the mean length of fruit per plant, mean fruit width per plant, mean fruit weight per ...

Orthodontic trial outcomes: Plentiful, inconsistent, and in need of uniformity? A scoping review [PDF]
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2018 The selection of appropriate outcomes that matter to both patients and operators is increasingly appreciated, with core outcome sets in clinical trials gaining in popularity. The first step in core outcome set development is the generation of a list of possible important outcomes based on a scoping literature review.

Implications of a uniformity trial with small plots of wheat
Hilgardia, 1957 A field trial with small plots of wheat, which can be regarded as a uniformity trial, is presented. This trial was examined in a manner similar to that used on other field trials, with strikingly contrasting results. Results of randomization trials in other studies have differed markedly from the conventional published ...

Simulation and test of a V-shaped seed-guiding surface and concave pit furrow opener for seed displacement restriction: Verification on seeding uniformity and post-soil-contact seed motion limitation. [PDF]
PLoS ONEIn plot breeding tests, sowing uniformity directly impacts the accuracy of crop genetic improvement trials. Existing furrow openers often cause spacing fluctuations and lateral seed drift due to structural limitations.
