Summary

An analysis of variance is developed for data from an incomplete mixture diallel experiment, where one subset w of the p genotypes are not grown together in mixtures. Estimation procedures and tests of hypotheses concerning relative yield totals and aggressivities are discussed, and an example is presented.
