2.8. Experimental Design and Statistical Analysis
The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) for
all the treatments. The experiment was comprised of different
combination and concentrations of plant growth regulators combined with
three accessions of Jatropha. Each treatment had five replicates of
culture Jars and set as experimental unit. Data collected from each
experiment was subjected to statistical analyses using the SAS
statistical software (version 9.2) and ANOVA was constructed, followed
by mean separation using Fisher’s Least Significance Difference (LSD) at
α=5%.
