Only temperatures with means between 10 and 90% tissue <br />survival were used in T50 calculations since the response curves are linear between <br />these 2 points. <br /> <br />x F values of a I-way analysis of variance. <br /> <br />w F values of a 2-way analysis of variance of data from a complete randomized block <br />design. <br /> <br />* Means significantly different at the 5% level. <br /> <br />** Means significantly different at the 1% level. <br /> <br />*** New data obtained in 1975 <br /> <br />- 5 - <br />
