Abstract excerpt
Common-environment experiments are important to study genetically based phenotypic variation within and among plant populations. Such experiments can be performed in an experimental garden, greenhouse, or climate chamber. However, phenotypic expression may be strongly affected by the environmental conditions and influenced by parental and storage effects. In particular, when the expression of genetically based...
