The CO2 data frame has 84 rows and 5 columns of data from an
experiment on the cold tolerance of the grass species
Echinochloa crus-galli.

Usage
CO2Details
The \(CO_2\) uptake of six plants from Quebec and six plants from Mississippi was measured at several levels of ambient \(CO_2\) concentration. Half the plants of each type were chilled overnight before the experiment was conducted.
This dataset was originally part of package nlme, and that has
methods (including for [, as.data.frame, plot and
print) for its grouped-data classes.
Format
An object of class
c("nfnGroupedData", "nfGroupedData", "groupedData", "data.frame")
containing the following columns:
- Plant
an ordered factor with levels
Qn1<Qn2<Qn3< … <Mc1giving a unique identifier for each plant.- Type
a factor with levels
QuebecMississippigiving the origin of the plant- Treatment
a factor with levels
nonchilledchilled- conc
a numeric vector of ambient carbon dioxide concentrations (mL/L).
- uptake
a numeric vector of carbon dioxide uptake rates (\(\mu\mbox{mol}/m^2\) sec).

# NOT RUN {
coplot(uptake ~ conc | Plant, data = CO2, show.given = FALSE, type = "b")
## fit the data for the first plant

## fit each plant separately

## check the coefficients by plant
