Abstract

In the paper the empirical comparison of eight methods of estimation of treatment effects in one-replicate trials (with replicated standards) is reported. The data from experiments on spring wheat, spring barley and winter wheat performed at Choryń, Kobierzyce, Polanowice, Modzurów and Nagradowice form a basis for all considerations. There were from one to five standard varieties used in particular trials. Different criteria were used. The uniformity of distribution of chosen (the best) lines in experimental area was one of these criteria. Another one based on comparison of the estimates of treatment effects with the same effects obtained when classical analysis of variance in muti-replicated trials was applied. Selection of explicit best method of estimation of treatment effects is difficult (or even impossible) as the decisions on superiority of a particular method is dependent on local type of field variability. Nevertheless, it is to be mentioned than in all cases the worst method was the method of raw data. The best were methods eliminating spatial relationships between plots.
