Popis: Agronomic researchers usually neglect heteroscedasticity in crop growth formulae and analysis. When they consider it they are not consistent in the methods they use. This study was conducted to: (i) find a method of testing for heteroscedasticity in nonreplicated whole plant growth data and (ii) determine the best weighting for such crop growth data. We developed seven different crop growth models with yield data collected during the growing season of five different crops (14 sets total, six with replicates). Next we performed tests for heteroscedasticity on model residuals and heterogeneity of variance tests on replicated data (...)
