1 Cassava CI Project 3: Implementing MARS Project for drought tolerance

2 MARS trial at Kano

3 Introduced by Federer (1956) Controls (check varieties) are replicated in a standard experimental design New treatments (genotypes) are not replicated, or have fewer replicates than the checks – they augment the standard design Augmented Designs Used in plant breeding during early generations + Seed, Land and other resources are limited + Want to evaluate as many genotypes as possible + Difficult to maintain homogeneous blocks when comparing so many genotypes Unreplicated designs can make good use of scarce resources + Evaluate more genotypes + Test in more environments Provide an estimate of standard error that can be used for comparisons + Among the new genotypes + Between new genotypes and check varieties
