Background: Wheat improvement program of the country identify genotypes with specific and general adaptations to ensure sustain yield for food security of the people. Yield behavior of promising wheat genotypes were studied at twelve locations of Central Zone of the country under restricted irrigation timely sown conditions. Methods: Recent analytic measures of adaptability viz., Relative Performance of Genetic Values (PRVG), Harmonic Mean of Genetic Values (MHVG) and Harmonic Mean of the Relative Performance of Genotypes (MHPRVG) were compared by considering Best Linear Unbiased Predictors (BLUP) of genotypes based on mixed model approach. Result: Genotypes MP3288, BRW3775 and DBW110 had been marked by analytic measures PRVG, MHVG, MHPRVG, HM for high yield and better adaptability across locations as per first year (2016-17) findings. HI8791 and DBW110 genotypes occupied places near to the origin in Biplot graphical analysis. Specific adapta­tions of genotype HI8791 for Sagar and Dhanduka locations were observed. DBW110 would be suitable for Jabalpur, Gwalior and Udaipur locations, whereas BRW3775 identified for Kota, Sanosora and Vijapur. Genotypes GW495, GW322, HI8713 and GW1339 had achieved high yield and better adaptability during the year (2017-18). The genotype UAS466 had expressed specific adapta­tions to Jabalpur and Gwalior, whereas HI8627 for Bhopal and Udaipur, NIAW3170 were identified for Indore and Vijapur, DDW47 for Sansora, Dhanduka and Pratapgarh. The recent analytic measures based on harmonic means of the relative performance of predicted genetic values have been observed as an appropriate to identify the better adaptive genotypes with higher yield.

Reports on biased interpretation for the stability of the genotypes under AMMI analysis, considering only the first two interaction principal components, has been observed in recent past. Simultaneous use of yield and stability of genotypes in a single measure had been advocated for identification of highly productive and broadly adapted genotypes.  The performance of superiority index, allowed variable weighting mechanism for yield and stability, has been compared with AMMI based measures. For the first year (2018-19) Superiority index, weighting 0.65 and 0.35 for yield and stability, found UAS3002, MP3336 and HI1633 as of stable performance with high yield. Recent analytic measures the relative proportion of genotypic value (PRVG) and Harmonic mean of the relative proportion of genotypic value (MHPRVG) selected CG1029, HI1634 and HD2932 wheat genotypes.  Indirect relations were expressed by Superiority Index (SI) with other stability measures.  Superiority index saw stable performance along with high yield of HD2864  and HI1634 for the second year 2019-20. PRVG as well as MHPRVG measures observed suitability of  CG1029 and  HD2864 while MP3336  as unstable wheat genotypes. Values of SI measure had expressed only indirect relations of high degree with stability measures except with yield, PRVG and MHPRVG values.  Stability measures by the simultaneous use of AMMI and yield would be more meaning full and useful as compared to measures consider either the AMMI or yield of genotypes only.

AMMI analysis had observed highly significant effects of environment (E), GxE interaction and genotypes (G) during 2018-19 and 2019-20 years of study. Suitability of PBW822, HI8811 & HI8713 genotypes as compared to HD3345 by WAASB measure for first year. Superiority index found HD3345, PBW822 & NIDW1158 as of stable performance with high yield. PRVG measures settled for HI8811, GW322 & HI 8737 and MHPRVG considered HI8811, HI8713 & GW322 wheat genotypes. All negative values of correlations exhibited by SI measure whereas WAASB measure exhibited direct relationships as well as negative values with SI, PRVG, MHPRVG and yield. WAASB measure observed suitability of GW513, HI1636 & MACS6747 wheat genotypes for the second year. Superiority index found GW513, HI1636 & HI1544 as of stable performance along with high yield. PRVG as well as MHPRVG measures observed suitability of GW513, HI1636, & MP1361 while HD3377 as unstable wheat genotype. SI measure had expressed only indirect relations of high degree with other measures except of positive values with yield, PRVG and MHPRVG. Measure WAASB had exhibited direct relations with most of measures along with negative correlation for SI, yield, PRVG and MHPRVG values. Stability measures by simultaneous use of AMMI analysis and average yield of genotypes would be more meaningful as compared to measures based either on the AMMI or yield only.


Highly significant effects of the environment (E), genotypes (G), and GxE interaction had been observed by AMMI analysis. Environment explained 51.4% whereas GxE interaction accounted for 22.1% of treatment variations in yield during first year. Harmonic Mean of Genotypic Values (HMGV) expressed higher values for DWRB160, DWRB184, and BH902. Ranking of genotype as per IPCA-1 were BH902, DWRB182, DWRB101. While IPCA-2, selected DWRB101, DWRB123, DWRB184 genotypes. Values of ASV1 selected DWRB101, DWRB182, BH902 and ASV identified DWRB101, DWRB123, DWRB182 barley genotypes. Adaptability measures Harmonic Mean of Relative Performance of Genotypic Values (HMPRVG) and Relative Performance of Genotypic Values (RPGV) identified DWRB160, DWRB184, and BH902 as the genotypes of performance among the locations. Biplot graphical analysis exhibited adaptability measures PRVG, HMPRVG along with IPC3, mean, GM, HM grouped in a cluster. During 2019-20 cropping season Environment effects accounted 79.7% whereas GxE interaction contributed for 7.7% % of treatment variations in yield. HMGV expressed higher values for DWRB196, DWRB123, and RD2849. IPCA-1 scores, desired ranking of genotypes was DWRB182, PL908, RD2849. While IPCA-2 pointed towards PL908, RD2849, DWRB196, as genotypes of choice. Analytic measures ASV and ASV1 selected PL908, RD2849, DWRB123 barley genotypes. HMRPGV along with PRVG settled for DWRB196, DWRB123, and RD2849. Adaptability measures PRVG, HMPRVG clustered with mean, GM, HM and observed in different quadrant of biplot analysis.

ABSTRACT In the context of plant breeding programs, it is necessary to evaluate the efficiency of genotype selection over successive years. However, evaluating the genotype selection efficiency is not an easy task, since there is not just a single way to precede it. Besides that, the programs need to be dynamic; that is, they should be able to track the introduction and discard of genotypes each year. As a result, the available data is quite unbalanced, leading to difficulties in certain analyses. Thus, the present study aims to propose some approaches to verify the genetic progress in the preliminary trial of the Federal University of Lavras (UFLA) upland rice breeding program. We utilized mixed models for grain yield and plant height. Trials were performed with a total of 120 genotypes in seven environments, defined by the interaction between locations and years. Due to the imbalance in the available data, the mixed model approach, i.e., Restricted Maximum Likelihood/Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (REML/BLUP), was adopted for the joint analysis. Besides the genetic and phenotypic parameters, the expected gains were also obtained with the selection, genetic progress, renewal rate (RR%), and dynamism of preliminary trials. The efficiency of the selection of superior genotypes per year was verified, with genetic progress favorable for reducing the medium-sized plants associated with high yield.

The levels of fumonisins (FUMO)—mycotoxins produced by Fusarium verticillioides—in maize for food and feed are subject to European Union regulations. Compliance with the regulations requires the targeting of, among others, the agroclimatic factors influencing fungal contamination and FUMO production. Arvalis-Institut du végétal has created a national, multiyear database for maize, based on field survey data collected since 2003. This database contains information about agricultural practices, climatic conditions and FUMO concentrations at harvest for 738 maize fields distributed throughout French maize-growing regions. A linear mixed model approach highlights the presence of borers and the use of a late variety, high temperatures in July and October, and a water deficit during the maize cycle as creating conditions favoring maize contamination with Fusarium verticillioides. It is thus possible to target a combination of risk factors, consisting of this climatic sequence associated with agricultural practices of interest. The effects of the various possible agroclimatic combinations can be compared, grouped and classified as promoting very low to high FUMO concentrations, possibly exceeding the regulatory threshold. These findings should facilitate the creation of a national, informative and easy-to-use prevention tool for producers and agricultural cooperatives to manage the sanitary quality of their harvest.
