미국 J1 비자 (포닥) 신청을 위한 단계별 안내서

캐나다 워크퍼밋을 신청하고 최종 워크퍼밋 비자를 받기까지 넉달이 걸린 반면 미국 J1 비자 신청을 위한 DS-2019 를 받는 것에는 3주가 걸렸습니다. 학교측에서 DS-2019 서류를 처리해 주는 것을 보면서 미국이 참 전산화가 잘 되어 있다는 생각을 했습니다. DS-2019 서류를 받은 뒤 J1 비자를 수령 받는 방법을 정리해 보았습니다. 1) DS-2019 서류 수령 미국 대학 측으로 부터 DS-2019 서류를 수령 받았습니다. 저는 현재 캐나다에서 일하고 있지만 제 국적이 대한민국 이여서 J1 비자 인터뷰는 캐나다에서 할수는 없고 주한 미국 대사관에서 해야 한다고 합니다….

How to draw a normal distribution graph using Python?

How to draw a normal distribution graph using Python?

In this session, using Python, I will draw a normal distribution graph using the actual data I collected. I measured individual grain areas for two wheat genotypes. For Cultivar_A, I measured the area for 1,225 grains and for Cultivar_B, I measured the area for 1,841 grains. Therefore, the total number of grain area data is 3,066. This is natural data collected by me in the actual cultivation field, and it would be interesting to see if it also follows a…

What is the F-ratio in statistics?

Today, I will explain the meaning of the F-value in testing for significance through statistical processing. Let me give you an example. Suppose we want to determine whether there are differences in the yield according to the varieties (A, B, C). The total experimental unit is 12 (3 varieties x 4 replicates). What would happen if there is a significant difference in yield among varieties A and C? If there is a large difference in yield between these varieties, the…

Advanced Text Formatting in R STUDIO Graphs: Superscripts and Subscripts

Sometimes, when creating graphs using R, there may be a need to include superscripts or subscripts in axis text or titles. In this post, I will introduce about how to enter text with superscripts or subscripts. I will generate one simple data and draw a graph to demonstrate. Here, I want to add superscripts or subscripts to the axis titles of the graph. For example, for the x-axis, I want to name it as “GenotypeTM” and for the y-axis, I…

What is logistic regression (feat. odds, odds ratio and model equation)?

What is logistic regression (feat. odds, odds ratio and model equation)?

Logistic regression is a type of statistical analysis used to model the relationship between a binary (yes/no) dependent variable and independent variables. The goal of logistic regression is to find a relationship between the independent variables (x) and the probability of a particular outcome for the dependent variable (y). The logistic regression model calculates the probability of a certain outcome by applying a logistic function to the linear combination of the independent variables. Here is one example. Sulphur improves plant…

In my previous post, I explained what split-plot design and the statistical model is, and also how it is different RCBD. What is split-plot design in agronomy research? I explained the main difference between split-plot design and RCBD is that in split-plot design, error is divided into two (error a and b), increasing the significance of interaction between the main plot and sub-plot. Now our interest lies in cases where we have three factors. In a split-plot design, we typically…

What is split-plot design in agronomy research?

What is split-plot design in agronomy research?

Split-plot design has been widely used particularly in the agronomy research. In split-plot design, the experimental units are divided into smaller units. Split-plot designs are useful when some factors are difficult or expensive to change or when the levels of the factors cannot be randomized (I’ll explain in detail later). Split-plot design consists of one whole plot and one subplot. The whole plot factor is randomly assigned to the experimental units, while the subplot factor is applied to a smaller…

When you conduct statistical analysis, you might want to include/exclude some variables. For example, here is one data. This is data about how yield, grain number (GN) and averge grain weight (AGW) are different according to two different fertilizers (N0, N1) in five genotypes (CV1 – CV5). That is, there will be 10 treatments [Genotype (5) x Nitrogen (2) =10]. Replicates are 10 as blocks, and therefore experimental unit will be 30 [10 treatments x 3 blocks = 30]. What…

First, I’ll calculate mean of each row (ENV1 to ENV 5). I discarded Environment row (dataA %>% select(-Environment)) because it’s not a numeric. Now, I’ll calculate mean of each column (CV1 to CV5). Now, mean of each column and row was calculated.

[Maize Article] GxE interaction in terms of stability

GxE interaction is when the phenotypic difference between a pair of genotypes is larger or smaller in one environment than in another environment. It is important to understand that what genotypes have different phenotypic values in two environments is not the same as GxE interaction. Please look at above graph. Both genotypes had a different phenotype in the two different environments (Env1 and Env2), but there was no interaction in this case because the difference between the phenotypic values was…
