Written in simple language with relevant examples, Statistical Methods in Biology: Design and Analysis of Experiments and Regression is a practical and illustrative guide to the design of experiments and data analysis in the biological and agricultural sciences. The book presents statistical ideas in the context of biological and agricultural sciences to which they are being applied, drawing on relevant examples from the authors’ experience.
Taking a practical and intuitive approach, the book only uses mathematical formulae to formalize the methods where necessary and appropriate. The text features extended discussions of examples that include real data sets arising from research. The authors analyze data in detail to illustrate the use of basic formulae for simple examples while using the GenStat® statistical package for more complex examples. Each chapter offers instructions on how to obtain the example analyses in GenStat and R.
By the time you reach the end of the book (and online material) you will have gained:
- A clear appreciation of the importance of a statistical approach to the design of your experiments,
- A sound understanding of the statistical methods used to analyse data obtained from designed experiments and of the regression approaches used to construct simple models to describe the observed response as a function of explanatory variables,
- Sufficient knowledge of how to use one or more statistical packages to analyse data using the approaches described, and most importantly,
- An appreciation of how to interpret the results of these statistical analyses in the context of the biological or agricultural science within which you are working.
The book concludes with a guide to practical design and data analysis. It gives you the understanding to better interact with consultant statisticians and to identify statistical approaches to add value to your scientific research.

About the Author
Suzanne Jane Welham obtained an MSc in statistical sciences from University College London in 1987 and worked as an applied statistician at Rothamsted Research from 1987 to 2000, collaborating with scientists and developing statistical software. She pursued a PhD from 2000 to 2003 at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and then returned to Rothamsted, during which time she coauthored the in-house statistics courses that motivated the writing of this book. She is a coauthor of about 60 published papers and currently works for VSN International Ltd on the development of statistical software for analysis of linear mixed models and presents training courses on their use in R and GenStat.
Salvador Alejandro Gezan, PhD, is an assistant professor at the School of Forest Resources and Conservation at the University of Florida since 2011. Salvador obtained his bachelor’s from the Universidad of Chile in forestry and his PhD from the University of Florida in statistics-genetics. He then worked as an applied statistician at Rothamsted Research, collaborating on the production and development of the in-house courses that formed the basis for this book. Currently, he teaches courses in linear and mixed model effects, quantitative genetics and forest mensuration. He carries out research and consulting in statistical application to biological sciences with emphasis on genetic improvement of plants and animals. Salvador is a long-time user of SAS, which he combines with GenStat, R and MATLAB as required.
Suzanne Jane Clark has worked at Rothamsted Research as an applied statistician since 1981. She primarily collaborates with ecologists and entomologists at Rothamsted, providing and implementing advice on statistical issues ranging from planning and design of experiments through to data analysis and presentation of results, and has coauthored over 130 scientific papers. Suzanne coauthored and presents several of the in-house statistics courses for scientists and research students, which inspired the writing of this book. An experienced and long-term GenStat user, Suzanne has also written several procedures for the GenStat Procedure Library and uses GenStat daily for the analyses of biological data using a wide range of statistical techniques, including those covered in this book.
Andrew Mead obtained a BSc in statistics at the University of Bath and an MSc in biometry at the University of Reading, where he spent over 16 years working as a consultant and research biometrician at the Institute of Horticultural Research and Horticulture Research International at Wellesbourne, Warwickshire, UK. During this time, he developed and taught a series of statistics training courses for staff and students at the institute, producing some of the material on which this book is based. For 10 years from 2004 he worked as a research biometrician and teaching fellow at the University of Warwick, developing and leading the teaching of statistics for both postgraduate and undergraduate students across a range of life sciences. In 2014 he was appointed as Head of Applied Statistics at Rothamsted Research. Throughout his career he has had a strong association with the International Biometric Society, serving as International President and Vice President from 2007 to 2010 inclusive, having been the first recipient of the ‘Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Development of the International Biometric Society’ in 2006, serving as a Regional Secretary of the British and Irish Region from 2000 to 2007 and on the International Council from 2002 to 2010. He is a (co)author of over 80 papers, and coauthor of Statistical Principles for the Design of Experiments: Applications to Real Experiments published in 2012.

(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
