Testing a Partial Ordering of Population Means with Application to Inference about Growth Habits of Cowpea Genotypes.

Abstract excerpt

Using general results available in the literature, we derive the likelihood ratio test for a particular partial ordering of means that naturally arises in a biological context. We then show that the conceptual and computational complexity of the derivation can be substantially reduced by equivalently deriving the test using the intersection-union principle for decomposing a complex null hypothesis into elemental...
