## Abstract This paper reviews methods for nearest neighbour analysis that adjust for local trend in one dimension. Such methods are commonly used in plant breeding and variety testing. The focus is on simple differencing methods, including first differences and the Papadakis method. We discuss mix

The problem of estimating unknown observational variances in multivariate dynamic linear models is considered. Conjugate procedures are possible for univariate models and also for special very restrictive common components models but they are not generally applicable. However, for clarity of operati
A nonparametric test of constant variance for the errors in a linear model is constructed through nonparametric smoothing of the residuals on a suitably transformed scale. Standard results on quadratic forms allow accurate distributional calculations to be made.
