 445 <h4>Step 1:<a href="managing-field-trials.html#step-1" class="anchor-section" aria-label="Anchor link to header"></a></h4>
 446 <p>The first step is to understand what the format of the trial upload is. It is important to understand that the field layout represents plots in the experiment. Each plot has a globally unique plot_name, a sequential plot_number that is unique in the trial (but not globally unique. e.g. 101, 102, 103 for three separate plots), an accession_name representing what genotype is planted in that plot, and a block_number representing design replication. Each plot can be thought of as having a row_number and a column_number representing the relative position of the plot in a grid (e.g. the top left plot is row 1 column 1 following by row 1 column 2). Each plot can be planted with an amount of seed from a seedlot, where the seedlot_name represents the specific seed packet that was used, and num_seed_per_plot and weight_gram_seed_per_plot represent amount that were transferred from the seedlot_name to the plot_name. Treatments (management factors) can be applied onto plots using additional column names in your file, where a 1 represents if the factor was applied to the plot and an empty cell means it was not applied.</p>
 447 <p><img src="assets/images/manage_trials_upload_trial_1.png" width="95%" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /></p>

 607 <p>In the “Field Layout Tools and Phenotype Heatmap” section of a Trial Detail page, the trial physical layout is displayed by default. The relative position of the plots will be displayed based on the row and column positions given to the plots during the trial creation or upload steps. The plots are color-coded based on the plot’s rep and block numbers and whether or not it is used as a check. Hover the mouse over the plot to see details about a specific plot.</p>
 608 <p><img src="assets/images/fieldmap_trial_layout.png" width="95%" style="display: block; margin: auto;" /></p>
 609 <p>If there is more than one trial grown in the same physical field, the trial layouts of all of the trials can be shown together if the trials share these properties:</p>
 610 <ul>
 611 <li>
 612 Each trial has the same <strong>year</strong>
 613 </li>
 614 <li>
 615 Each trial has the same <strong>location</strong>
 616 </li>
 617 <li>
 618 The <strong>location type</strong> of the trials’ location is set to <strong>Field</strong>
 619 </li>
 620 <li>
 621 The <strong>row</strong> and <strong>column</strong> positions of all of the plots (across the related trials) don’t overlap. For example, trial #1 starts at row 1 and trial #2 starts at row 10.
 622 </li>
 623 </ul>
 624 <p>When these conditions are met and you check the “Select Trials in Same Field” checkbox, the plots from all of the related trials will be displayed on the same field layout. The plots will be color-coded by trial. The planting order and harvest order downloads will include the plots from all of the displayed trials in the order in which the plots occur in the field.</p>

 752 <p>After you added a new trial to the database you can choose to add plant entries to your trial. Adding plant entries enables plant level phenotyping. It is generally better to enter data at the plant level into the database because it is always possible to calculate plot level phenotypes from the individual plant data.</p>
 753 <p>Plant entries can be added to your trial in two ways:
 754 1) Automatically generated by the database. The only input required is the number of plants per plot.
 755 2) Uploaded in an XLS or XLSX file. This allows you to specifically name your plant entries.</p>
 756 <p>These two options are available in the “Plant Entries” section on the Trial Detail Page, as shown in the screen shot below.</p>

 760 <p>Clicking on “Add plant entries” opens the following dialog box. The only input required is the number of plants per plot. This will create plant entries that are named as a concatenation of the plot_name and the plant’s index number e.g. plot_name_plant_1</p>

 769 <p>This shows you that the files requires the header to contain “plot_name” and “plant_name”. The plot_name must exist in the database already and the plant_name must be unique in the database.</p>
 770 <p>Along with the file, you must specify “number of plants per plot”. This is intended to be the total number of plants that were plants. If the file you upload shows three plants in one plot and four plants in another plot, that is fine.</p>

 775 <p>Some trials require tissue samples to be collected from plants in a field trial. The database will generate these tissue sample identifiers for you and will maintain all relationships with the plant, plot, accession, etc. To begin, go to the Design section of a trial’s detail page and open the “tissue sample entries” section.
 776 Please note that tissue samples are directly related to plants, therefore your trial requires plants before you can add tissue samples.</p>
