Description

Near-isogenic lines contrasting at the BCMA1/3 locus were transplanted into 16 field environments across Colorado and Idaho to measure fitness components including survival and herbivore damage. Uses a complete block design with multiple CFR-NIL families to control for unlinked loci effects.

Typical Equipment

  • field transplant materials
  • field data recording materials

Output Measurements

  • survival probability
  • herbivore damage percentage
  • reproductive output
