Hello All, I am attempting to run collected disease data (Area under the disease progress curve, AUDPC - by variety and pathogen) and temperature data collected for the average temperature in the room each day as the experiment was run. This is important because we have seen a bit of variation in the room where the trial was stored and due to the pathogen preferences, we are concerned that may have skewed the data. (Additional: The sets of apples were run at different times so the daily avg. the temperature will be different depending on when the trial was run. I could average it for the entire trial and just use a single value but I am also unsure of it that would be acceptable in the SAS code. Can I combine the two sheets with "date" as a factor? I have never analyzed this and am unsure of where to start. Here is an example of the data: Disease Data Variety Treatment/Pathogen Rep AUDPC Apple 1 1 1 277 Apple 1 1 2 265 Apple 1 1 3 316 Apple 1 1 4 246 Apple 1 3 1 591 Apple 1 3 2 503 Apple 1 3 3 554 Apple 1 3 4 460 Apple 1 4 1 388 Apple 1 4 2 498 Apple 1 4 3 484 Apple 1 4 4 430 Temperature Data: Date Avg High Low 9/23/2019 70.26567 71.8 69.1 9/24/2019 69.3425 70.4 68.2 9/25/2019 68.89967 70.4 67.3 9/26/2019 69.88596 70.3 69.2 9/27/2019 68.89208 70.1 67.7 9/28/2019 68.85629 69.7 68.5 9/29/2019 68.39888 68.5 68.2 9/30/2019 69.09233 70.8 68 10/1/2019 71.58325 72.3 70.9 10/2/2019 70.81654 71.6 70.48 10/3/2019 71.42663 73.4 69.7 10/4/2019 70.48013 71.6 68.9 Any thoughts on which test might be most appropriate to compare these two groups. Thank you so much for your help!
