KollecTrait - Score Page

Detail

Score page of KollecTrait is used to record raw data of active traits and sample type for the trial units. A datafile must be selected before this page can be displayed.

Illustrative snapshot:
Score page
  1. Unit Position of the current trial unit.
  2. Genotype name (Oddball in the snapshot) of the current trial unit.
  3. Rep of the genotype in the trial design.
    Instance number (by default 1) for the raw data being recorded.
    Selected sample type (Plot in the snapshot) for the raw data being recorded.
  4. Comment of the current trial unit (applies to all the trait scores for this trial unit).
  5. Trait buttons for the active traits.
  6. Recorded trait scores for the current trial unit.

Trait Buttons

Score page can display upto 12 (twelve) active traits that are displayed in the order in which they were activated.

Illustrative snapshot:
Trait Button
  1. Trait Button for Maturity that has already been scored (crossed!).
  2. Trait Button for EarlyGrowthHabit that has not scored yet.
  3. Recorded trait scores for the current trial unit are displayed in this Current Value textbox.

Trait Value Buttons

Depending upon the data type and the Value Range of the selected trait in Trait Buttons panel, different Trait Value Button component is displayed.

Value Range
  1. Name of the selected trait to score (EarlyGrowthHabit in the snapshot). Click it to return to Trait Button panel without selecting any value for the trait.
  2. Click it to select NA value for the selected trait.
  3. Click on one of the Trait Value Button (in the snapshot 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 9) to select value for the trait ie if user clicks on 9 then KollecTrait set EarlyGrowthHabit=9 (which is displayed in the Current Value textbox).

Trait (numeric) with less than or equal to 10 values in Value Range

Trait Value buttons are generated dynamically using the Value Range and Increment as shown in the following snapshot.
Value Range Increment Trait Value Buttons

0..9

1

 Value Range (0-9)

25..50

5

 Value Range (25-50)

Trait (numeric) with more than 10 values in Value Range

Trait Value buttons are generated dynamically using the Value Range and Increment as shown in the following snapshot.
Value Range Increment Trait Value Buttons

Step 1

29..85

1

 Value Range (29-85)
  1. Click it to return to Trait Button panel without entering value for the trait.
  2. There are more than 10 values in the Value Range of the selected trait (Zadok in the snapshot) because the Value Range is 29 to 85 and Increment is 1. So, KollecTrait groups the values so that each trait value button displays 10 values in step 2 (below) (in the snapshot user clicks on 29..38).
  3. Click it to select NA value for the selected trait.

Step 2

25..38

1

 Value Range (29-38) 
  1. Click it to return to Trait Button panel without entering value for the trait.
  2. Click it to reset the display trait value buttons ie return to step 1 (as shown above)
  3. Click on one of the trait value button to select value for the selected trait (Zadok in the snapshot).

Trait (string) with Value Range

Trait of string data type can have upto 10 Value Ranges as shown in the following snapshot. Increment is not applicable for this case.
Value Range Trait Value Buttons

Early,
Mid,
Late,
Very Late

 Value Range of String data type 
  1. Click it to return to Trait Button panel without entering value for the trait.
  2. Click it to select NA value for the selected trait.
  3. There are more than 4 values for this Trait of string data type.
    Click it to select Late for Maturity in the snapshot.

Trait without Value Range

Trait Value buttons are generated dynamically using the Value Range and Increment as shown in the following snapshot.
Unit Data type Trait Value Buttons

days

Integer

 Without Value Range (Unit=Days)
  1. Today (when trait is being scored)
  2. Start date to calculate days
  3. Click it to calculate days (Today - Start date)
  4. Click it to delete existing value for the selected trait
  5. Click it to return to Trait Button panel without entering value for the trait.

cm

Decimal

 Without Value Range (Unit=cm)
  1. Click it to selected one of the already selected value (for other trial units) of the trait.
  2. Or enter any value using Soft Input Panel which is activated when this textbox gets focus.
  3. Click it to accept the value in the textbox (2).
  4. Click it to select NA value for the selected trait.
  5. Click it to return to Trait Button panel without entering value for the trait.

Search / Filter

Use [ Menu > Search / Filter ] to activate the Search/Filter form that can be used to find/select trial units that matches the filter condition.
Illustrative snapshot:
Trial Unit Filter

In the following snapshot, search for "Trial units with genotype name that contains ball" was requested and it displays all the matching trial units.

Trial Unit Filter Result 
Once the trial units are displayed, you can select the one. Then click on "Apply Filter" to record data for the displayed trial units only.

Or you can select a trial unit record and then on "Select/Close" to select the trial unit and close this "Search/Filter" form in order to record trait score for the selected trial unit.

Filter column name Comment
Block* One of the Unit Position Virtual Column used in the Trial.
Column* One of the Unit Position Virtual Column used in the Trial.
Genotype Name of the genotype. User can enter first few characters to filter genotype.
Pedigree Pedigree of the genotype. User can enter first few characters to filter genotype.
Rep Replicate of the genotype in trial design.
Row* One of the Unit Position Virtual Column used in the Trial.

*Block, Column and Row are the Unit Position Virtual Columns that are used in the selected trial, thus displayed here. For example, the Unit Position Virtual columns for a milling trial are MillingSequence and MillingDay, then filter column will display MillingSequence and MillingDay.
How to create filter condition?
  1. Select a filter column
  2. Select an operator from the list
  3. Enter a value to perform search.
Examples:
Column Operator Value Output
Block Equals to 1 Find trial units that are in Block 1 (ie the UnitPositionText contains "Block1".
Column Not Equals to 4 Find trial units that are not in Column 4 (ie the UnitPositionText does not contain "Column4".
Genotype Contains ball Find trial units with genotype name that contains ball (eg genotypes oddball in Demo data).
Genotype Does not contain odd Find trial units with genotype name that does not contain odd (eg genotypes oddball in Demo data).
