Large genotype x environment (g x e) interaction variances for yield relative to those for genotypes have been recognized for wheat cultivars in Queensland. The utility of a linear model to explain these interactions was examined by yield-testing 100 different wheat cultivars at nine different environments, including four locations and three years, in south-eastern Queensland. The linear model was found to explain less than 40% of the total g x e interaction and to give only a general indication of cultivar responses to different environments. Selection strategies to identify widely adapted cultivar involving several parameters (mean cultivar yield over all environments, the g x e interaction for each cultivar and the regression coefficient for each cultivar), singly and in combination, were evaluated. Greater selection differentials were found in most environments when selection was practiced for high mean yield across all environments when the yield of each cultivar in each environment was expressed as a percentage of the environment mean yield.

It has long been observed that independent laboratories differ in reporting the results of repeated experiments. The problem is to detect those laboratories that might be considered aberrant. Previous analyses have been based on an analysis of variance framework or on subset selection for the detection of aberrant laboratories. The present procedure is also based on an ANOVA model but uses a Bayesian estimate of the number of aberrant laboratories. Subsequent to the determination of the aberrant laboratories, a linear model is used to separate sampling and laboratory effects.

Over a 15-year period, the greasy fleece weights of medium-wooled Merino ewes lambing in June in a 625 mm winter rainfall area in south-western Australia were examined in relation to the numbers of lambs born and reared. The ewes were set stocked at 6.7 ewes/ha on annual pasture. During this period selection for increased wool production was undertaken. A generalised linear model was used to assess the effects of bearing and rearing lambs. There was a significant (P<0.05) year x lambing interaction because of a different response over years 1-7 from that over years 8-15. Over years 1-7 when dry ewes cut an average of 4250 g greasy wool, ewes raising single lambs cut 185 g less wool (P<0.001); the few that raised twins cut a similar amount of wool to dry ewes. In years 8-15, wool production of dry ewes increased to an average of 5524 g. Ewes that lambed but lost their lambs cut 386 g less wool, those raising single lambs 652 g less wool, and those raising twins 846 g less wool. Over years 8-15, a second flock in which some ewes lambed twice a year was examined. These ewes received supplementary feed for out of season lambing. Those that raised 2 single lambs in a year cut 1120 g less wool than dry ewes.
