Total variation in yield per plant of long English cucumbers is partitioned by regression procedures into increments of variation due to successive morphological components. Variation in these increments is partitioned further by conventional analysis of variance. The results of this 2-way partitioning describe how treatments produce differences in yield through their effects on yield component variation. The method (2dimensional partitioning, TDP) offers a simple way to account for growth and yield variation in crops.
