Fit an ordinary RCB model with fixed effects for `block` and `genotype`. Plot a heatmap of the residuals. ```{r ryder} library(agridat) library(desplot) data(ryder.groundnut) gnut <- ryder.groundnut m1 <- lm(dry ~ block + gen, gnut) # Standard RCB model gnut$res <- resid(m1) desplot(gnut, res ~ col + row, text=gen, cex=1, main="ryder.groundnut residuals from RCB model") ``` Note the largest positive/negative residuals are adjacent to each other, perhaps caused by the original data values being swapped. Checking with experiment investigators (managers, data collectors, etc.) is recommended. ## References
