A data frame with 6 observations on the following 3 variables.
pconc
a numeric vector, percent concentration
of pyrethrins.
hatched
number of eggs that hatched.
unhatched
number of eggs that did not hatch.
Details
Finney (1944) describes a toxicity trial of five different
concentrations of pyrethrins (percent) plus a control that were
administered to eggs of Ephestia kuhniella.
The natural mortality rate is large, and a common adjustment
is to use Abbott's formula.
