Summary. Vining and co‐workers have used plots of the prediction variance trace (PVT) along the so‐called prediction rays to compare mixture designs in a constrained region R . In the present paper, we propose a method for describing the distribution of the prediction variance within the region R by using quantile plots. More comprehensive comparisons between mixture designs are possible through the proposed plots than with the PVT plots. The utility of the quantile plots is illustrated with a four‐component fertilizer experiment that was initiated in São Paulo, Brazil.
