| 1. Yields calculated as 48 pounds per bushel at 13.0% moisture. | |||||||||
| 2. C.V. = 11.0%, and df for EMS = 27. | |||||||||
| 3. The F-test indicated no statistical difference at the alpha = 0.1 probability level; therefore, an LSD value was not calculated. | |||||||||
| Bolding indicates entries yielding equal to highest yielding entry within a column based on Fisher's protected LSD (P = 0.10). | |||||||||
