The data are from a foster feeding experiment with rat mothers and litters of four different genotypes. The measurement is the litter weight after a trial feeding period.
A data frame with 61 observations on the following 4 variables.
litgen
genotype of the litter, a factor with levels A, B, I, and J.
motgen
genotype of the mother, a factor with levels A, B, I, and J.
weight

Details
Here the interest lies in uncovering the effect of genotype of mother and litter on litter weight.
