christensenetal2003: Potency of two herbicides

Description

Data are from an experiment, comparing the potency of the two herbicides glyphosate and bentazone in Sinapis alba.

Usage

data(christensenetal2003)

source

The dataset is analysed in Christensen et al (2003).

Details

The lower and upper limits for the two herbicides can be assumed identical, whereas slopes and ED50 values are different (in the log-logistic model).
