In a field experiment designed to investigate the role of genetic diversity in
ecosystems, Reusch et al. (2005) planted eelgrass in plots in a shallow
estuary in the Baltic Sea. Eighteen eelgrass shoots were planted in every
plot. Some plots (randomly chosen) were planted with only one eelgrass
genotype, others were planted with three genotypes, and others were
planted with six different eelgrass genotypes. At the end of the experiment,
the total number of shoots was counted in each plot. The results from 32
plots are given in the following table:
#genotypes
1
3
6
# shoots
11, 14, 21, 27, 28, 30, 32, 32, 36, 38, 49, 61,
71
obs freq =
treatment
20, 35, 36, 41, 46, 47, 52, 53, 58, 67
31, 45, 45, 47, 48, 62, 64, 69, 84, 86
What is the appropriate null hypothesis for this analysis?
exp freq, the shoot number will be similar by genotype
var among s variance within, the shoot number will be similar by
genotype treatment
Or = 0, there is no association between shoot number and genotype
treatment
b = 0, there is no relationship between shoot number and genotype
