The relation of count to other characteristics of New Zealand wools

Pages 666-677 | Received 17 Jul 1964, Published online: 06 Jan 2012
 

Abstract

The inter-relations of count, fibre diameter, staple crimp, staple length, and yield in data on 76 fine wool sale lots and 168 Crossbred sale lots have been analysed.

The regression of mean diameter on count showed an average change of 3.11μ between adjacent fine wool counts, and the standard deviation of the mean diameters about the regression line was 1.19μ. For the Crossbred wools the change between adjacent counts averaged only 1.27μ, and the standard deviation from this regression line was 1.41μ.

The diameters corresponding to the various Crossbred counts were higher than most published values.
