(A) All barley biomass and the multiple, fertile tillers (>70) in each field spot correspond to a single seed. The number of replications are commonly 40–120 and plant spacing is 100 cm. (B) The honeycomb selection design D19 is used to demonstrate the principles of moving complete replicates and grids and the components of the prognostic equations.
