Multiple data sources are often available to estimate a key parameter or to test a hypothesis of scientific or societal interest. These data, obtained under different environmental conditions or based on different experimental protocols, are generally heterogeneous. Sometimes they are not even directly accessible and should be extracted from scientific articles or reports. However, a comprehensive analysis of the available data is essential to increase the accuracy of estimates, assess the validity of research conclusions and understand the origin of the variability of the experimental results. A quantitative synthesis of the data set available allows for a better understanding of the effects of explanatory factors and for evidence-based recommendations. Designed as a methodological guide, this book shows the interests and limitations of different statistical methods to analyze data from experimental networks and to perform meta-analyses. It is intended for engineers, students and researchers involved in data analysis in agronomy and environmental science. Our objective is to present the main statistical methods to analyze data from experimental networks and scientific publications. Each chapter exposes one or more methods and illustrates them with examples processed with the R software. Data and R codes are provided and commented in order to facilitate their adaptation to other situations. The codes can be reused from the KenSyn R package associated with this book.AgriculturePlant scienceBotanyStatistics Environmental sciencesR (Computer program language)Agriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Plant Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000Statistical Theory and Methodshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S11001Environmental Science and Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G37000Agriculture.Plant science.Botany.Statistics .Environmental sciences.R (Computer program language).Agriculture.Plant Sciences.Statistical Theory and Methods.Environmental Science and Engineering.003Makowski Davidauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut926057Piraux Françoisauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBrun Françoisauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910337956203321From Experimental Network to Meta-analysis2079143UNINA
