Case Study: pea phenotyping • Cooperators • Funded evaluations • Publication data mining • Funded research projects • Survey germplasm users (NCRPIS) • Curator evaluations • Publishable using augmented designs • Data from other genebanks
A. Cooperators – CORE studies • Examples of published data in GRIN • Usually a subset of the pea CORE • McPhee K.E. 2005.

C. Data mining from publications • Crop Registrations • from JASHS and Crop Science • high quality peer-reviewed & replicated data • Literature review • WEB of Science dbf • AGRICOLA dbf • Sign up for Digitop https://d2.nal.usda.gov/login
D. Funding evaluation research projects • USDA – FAS ($15,000/year, 3 yrs) • Seed weight and number in pea • www.fas.usda.gov/icd/grants/scrp.htm • Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development – funds scientific exchange visits • www.oecd.org/home/0,2605,en_2649_201185_1_1_1_1_1,00.html • ARS Post-doctoral funding: pea SNPs • 2 years, $50,000/year = $100,000 • www.npstaff.ars.usda.gov/ARIS/Manual/chapt15g.pdf • NRI (rejected so far, but they fund germplasm projects) • http://www.csrees.usda.gov/funding/rfas/pdfs/06_nri.pdf
E. Survey stakeholders • Ad hoc (polite for random): Large germplasm requests-ask if you may enter the data into GRIN after publication • Systematic: once/year mail survey Western Region Advisory committee • Systematic: Survey each germplasm order (NCRPIS) • Discussion
F. Curator evaluations – design for publication • Advantages: scientists will know the data is available with the experimental details – two examples • Protein (cooperator ground seed, paid for gases for nitrogen analyzer) – core only • Coyne CJ, Razai L, Baik B-K, Grusak M.A. 2005. Variation for pea seed protein concentration in USDA Pisum core collection. Pisum Genetics 37: (in press). • Seed weight and seed number – core only • Replicated field trial, two locations, two years, too much • Solution to too much • Work with statistician • Augmented designs

Statistical Models and Methods 5. Data Analysis 6. Data Salvage PC SAS - Distribution of the SAS software is through the statisticians. Yearly licensing fees, are paid out of PWA funds and then charged back to each user
Field evaluations-6.4 Augmented designs • Augmented designs are appropriate for evaluation stages when hundreds or even thousands of accessions are being studied in the same experiment, using a limited amount of sowing material perhaps enough for one replicate only. • They cope with environmental heterogeneity by placing replicates of controls systematically in the experiment. As control plots may be said to keep a check on environmental variation, they have been called checks, and in this section we use check for control”. • From IPGRI Technical Manual 4. http://www.ipgri.cgiar.org/publications/pubselect.asp
Augmented designs: data analysis • Manuals & Programs: Several programs, users manuals, and data examples can be downloaded: • AMMI contains a manual, SAS codes, and data examples for performing the analysis of the Additive Main Effects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI) model of multi-environment trials and for constructing the biplot. • UNREPLICATE includes a manual, SAS macro, and data for analyzing unreplicated trials where the repeated checks are arranged in incomplete blocks. • SPATIAL has a manual and data for using the ASREML method for spatial analysis of field trials. • BIPLOTS contains a manual, data, SAS codes, and examples for constructing GE biplots and GGE biplots obtained from AMMI and SREG models, respectively. These biplots delineate subsets of environments and genotypes with positive interaction. • From www.cimmyt.org/english/wps/biometrics/index.htm • Other Reference book:Kang MS (ed) 2003.

Data analysis and presentation • GRIN • Design descriptors during experimental design phase • Think about software for your analysis • SAS, TASSEL, GERMINATE • Publication options • Crop Science • Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution • Euphytica • Plant Breeding • Plant Genetic Resources: Characterization and Utilization
G. Data from other genebanks • Australia example: • Used IRRI’s ISIS database format • Downloaded all available data from SINGER and GRIN on lentil and chickpea • www.iris.irri.org/ranjanweb/SiteMain.jsp • Have not done in pea yet, but in discussion with other pea genebanks • Funded project with ICRISAT- exchange chickpea data-failed.
