Anovas.Hyperspectral Analysis of Primed Lettuce Seeds.pdf

ANOVA and MANOVA of Spectral Data of Lettuce Seeds from Two Genotypes Subjected to Priming.ANOVA was used to examine differences in hyperspectral bands based on cultivar and seed treatment (non-primed, wet primed, dry primed, and stored primed). The experiment was established using a randomized complete block design (10 lots) with two factors: the first factor was the cultivar (2 levels), and the second factor was the seed treatment (4 levels).Subsequently, a MANOVA was conducted to evaluate how the treatments influenced the hyperspectral properties of the seeds. Various statistical criteria, such as Pillai's trace, Hotelling-Lawley trace, Wilks' lambda, and Roy's largest root, were used to determine the significance of the treatments considering all response variables (Cheng et al., 2023b; Xu et al., 2022).4o
