Statistical Evaluations of Plant Height of Cotton as Influenced by Different Treatments and Soils¹

Synopsis: The fitting of experimental data such as plant height response on selected flexible curves through the use of digital computers seems to offer excellent opportunities to make more exacting comparisons of imposed treatments. Plant height of cotton was especially indicative of moisture and spacing treatments on fine-textured soils. Cotton grown under close-spacing and moisture stress treatments indicated greater fluctuations in plant height within the plant population. Possible explanations for these responses are proposed.
