In the current study, scans were performed over a two day period by a single tester with similar CV% values with- and without repositioning.
Such a device should yield measurements of knee laxity that are consistent during a single testing session for a single tester, consistent for a single tester over multiple testing sessions, and consistent between testers.
Furthermore, the use of different testers has shown increased precision error compared with repeats scans performed by a single tester [ 24].
Normally throughout the program, only a single tester was used per location and year, but in some locations, some subsets of genotypes were testcrossed with the two available testers.
A single tester administered and read the indurations after 48 hours using a caliper.
In the current study, the S7 population was evaluated in hybrid combination with a single female tester (B923171).
In order to process so many samples, the testers have partnered with pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline, which has technology that can look for more than 60 illicit substances in a single test.
F1-hybrids were obtained by crossing inbred natural lines with known genotypes with a single common tester line (w[1118]).
The 504 DH were crossed to a single-cross tester.
The crosses between the tester stock and DGRP stocks were generally carried out in a single block to minimize experimental error.
The experimentations were carried out in a soil bin facility utilizing a single wheel-tester.
