When the basic sampling unit in the population is to be found in groups or clusters, e.g. human beings in households, the sampling is sometimes carried out by selecting a sample of clusters and observing all the members of each selected cluster. This is known as cluster sampling. (A Dictionary of Statistical Terms, 5th edition, prepared for the International Statistical Institute by F.H.C. Marriott.

Karnal bunt (Tilletia indica) is a fungus affecting grains of wheat, durum and triticale. It reduces grain quality through the production of masses of powdery spores that discolour the grain and grain products. It is recognised by a ‘dead fish’ smell. (Plant Health Australia. 2024. Karnal bunt https://www.planthealthaustralia.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/KarnalBunt_FS.pdf)
