Questions

• Are different genotypes affected by their environment (indoor vs outdoor) different?
• Do different measurements of growth (height vs plant area vs root length) have the same indoor-outdoor relationship?

Important Variables

• Genotype
• Height
• Height-to-width ratio
• Leaf area
• Plant color
• Soil (acidity, moisture, density)
• Weather/greenhouse conditions

Analyses

• Linear modeling
• Regression plots
• Machine learning
• Data cleaning
