1/ TO DETERMINE STATISTICAL DIFFERENCES AMONG ENTRIES, SUBTRACT ONE ENTRY'S MEAN FROM ANOTHER ENTRY-S MEAN.             
   STATISTICAL DIFFERENCES OCCUR WHEN THIS VALUE IS LARGER THAN THE  CORRESPONDING LSD VALUE (LSD 0.05).

2/ C.V. (COEFFICIENT OF VARIATION) INDICATES THE PERCENT VARIATION OF THE MEANS IN EACH COLUMN.
