Performing line x tester analysis with the SAS® system
2003
Bartolome, V.I. | Gregorio, G.B.
Plant breeders use line x tester analysis to evaluate the general and specific combining ability of various lines and to estimate gene effects. This analysis requires a lengthy series of complicated computational steps, which, when done in SAS®, would require in-depth knowledge of the software. However, few breeders have this capability, thus, a program was developed for users with limited knowledge of SAS. This program requests information from users interactively and prints out the needed analyses. Users of the program need to know only how to open the program file, respond to queries, and print the output. The line x tester program is available from the Biometrics Unit at IRRI.
