The impact of sugarcane borers on reducing sorghum fitness and grain production.
data(Borers)
A data frame with 72 rows and 8 columns:
The hybrid; one of AG1090
, BRS373
or DKB590
Whether insecticide was used; one of with
or without
The plant height, in cm
The length of borers tunnels, in cm
The panicle (flower cluster) length, in cm
The panicle (flower cluster) weight, in cm
The amount of infestation (the 'stem borer injury'), as a percentage
The sorghum yield, in kg per hectare
The data provide details of sorghum yield in the presence of borer infestation, from a study Brazil conducted over three years.
