Table 3 Top to bottom gap for various number of entries (in parenthesis the k constant to construct the honeycomb design) allocated according to the design for each set of trials (the first comprising landraces Evros and Elassona and their united trial, while the second landrace Lefkada at interplant distance of 0.50 and 0.80 m and their united trial). The coefficient of linear correlation (r) between TBG and the corresponding entry size (n, number of plants) is also given
