To determine the effects of environment and genotypic differences on tuber yield and other related traits, 12 genotypes comprising 9 improved elite clones, two local landraces and 1 improved and released variety were evaluated for tuber yield, response to yam mosaic virus and leaf spot diseases at 16 growing environments. The multi-environment trials were conducted using randomized complete-block design with three blocks for four years in four representative agro-ecological zones (Atebubu, Kintampo, Ejura and Fumesua) in Ghana. The objective was to select high and stable yielding varieties for release as varieties in Ghana. The multi-environment data for the trials collected were subjected to combine analyses of variance using the ANOVA procedure of Statistical Tool for Agricultural Research (STAR) to determine the magnitude of the main effects and interactions. Genotype main effect and genotype by environment interaction effect (GGE) model was used to dissect the genotype by environment interaction (GEI) using the GGE biplot software (GGE biplot, 2007). GGE biplots analysis was applied for visual examination of the GEI pattern in the data set. A highly significant effects (P < 0.001) for Genotype (G), environment (E) and genotype by environment (GEI) interaction were occurred in the data set for highly significant for all the traits studied (P < 0.001), indicating genetic variability between genotypes by changing environments. This indicated changes in ranking order of the genotype performances across the test environments. The partitioning of the GGE effect for tuber yield through in GGE biplot analysis model showed that PC1 and PC2 accounted for 40.47.0% and 19.89.0% of the variation GGE sum of squares respectively for tuber yield, respectively explaining a total of 60.36% variation. Mankrong Pona was the most stable and high yielding (closest to the ideal genotype) followed by TDr95/19177. Genotypes TDr00/02472, TDr00/00539 and TDr98/00933 are desirable genotypes for further assessment on culinary characteristics and end-user assessment for release as varieties. All the four locations used for the study were highly relevant for research and development of yams. Ejura and Fumesua were the most discriminating and most representative for YMV respectively. In terms of yield, Kintampo environment was the most discriminating and Fumesua and Atebubu were the closest to ideal environment for evaluating yield.

The article presents results of additive main effect and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and genotype (G) main effect and genotype by environment (GE) interaction (G × GE) biplot analysis of a multi environmental trial (MET) data of 15 sweetpotato varieties released from Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute conducted during 2015–2018. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of genotype, environment and their interaction on tuber yield and to identify stable sweetpotato genotypes over the years. The experimental layout was a randomized complete block design with three replications at Gazipur location. Combined analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated that the main effects due to genotypes, environments and genotype by environment interaction were highly significant. The contribution of genotypes, environments and genotype by environment interaction to the total variation in tuber yield was about 60.16, 10.72 and 12.82%, respectively. The first two principal components obtained by singular value decomposition of the centred data of yield accounted for 100% of the total variability caused by G × GE. Out of these variations, PC1 and PC2 accounted for 71.5% and 28.5% of variability, respectively. The study results identified BARI Mistialu- 5, BARI Mistialu- 14 and BARI Mistialu- 15 as the closest to the “ideal” genotype in terms of yield potential and stability. Varieties ‘BARI Mistialu- 8, BARI Mistialu- 11 and BARI Mistialu- 12’ were also selected as superior genotypes. BARI Mistialu- 3 and BARI Mistialu- 13 was comparatively low yielder but was stable over the environment. Among them BARI Mistialu-12, BARI Mistialu-14 and BARI Mistialu-15 are rich in nutrient content while BARI Mistialu-8 and BARI Mistialu-11 are the best with dry matter content and organoleptic taste. Environments representing in 1st and 3rd year with comparatively short vectors had a low discriminating power and environment in 2nd year was characterized by a high discriminating power.

Summary The experiment was carried out in three crop cycles as plant cane, first ratoon, and second ratoon at five locations on Florida muck soils (histosols) to evaluate the genotypes, test locations, and identify the superior and stable sugarcane genotypes. There were 13 sugarcane genotypes along with three commercial cultivars as checks included in this study. Five locations were considered as environments to analyze genotype-by-environment interaction (GEI) in 13 genotypes in three crop cycles. The sugarcane genotypes were planted in a randomized complete block design with six replications at each location. Performance was measured by the traits of sucrose yield tons per hectare (SY) and commercial recoverable sugar (CRS) in kilograms of sugar per ton of cane. The data were subjected to genotype main effects and genotype × environment interaction (GGE) analyses. The results showed significant effects for genotype (G), locations (E), and G × E (genotype × environment interaction) with respect to both traits. The GGE biplot analysis showed that the sugarcane genotype CP 12-1417 was high yielding and stable in terms of sucrose yield. The most discriminating and non-representative locations were Knight Farm (KN) for both SY and CRS. For sucrose yield only, the most discriminating and non-representative locations were Knight Farm (KN), Duda and Sons, Inc. USSC, Area 5 (A5), and Okeelanta (OK).

ABSTRACT The GGE Biplot method is efficien to identify favorable genotypes and ideal environments for evaluation. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate the genotype by environment interaction (G×E) and select elite lines of cowpea from genotypes, which are part of the cultivation and use value tests of the Embrapa Meio-Norte Breeding Program, for regions of the Brazilian Cerrado, by the GGE-Biplot method. The grain yield of 40 cowpea genotypes, 30 lines and 10 cultivars, was evaluated during three years (2010, 2011 and 2012) in three locations: Balsas (BAL), São Raimundo das Mangabeiras (SRM) and Primavera do Leste (PRL). The data were subjected to analysis of variance, and adjusted means were obtained to perform the GGE-Biplot analysis. The graphic results showed variation in the performance of the genotypes in the locations evaluated over the years. The performance of the lines MNC02-675F-4-9 and MNC02-675F-4-10 were considered ideal, with maximum yield and good stability in the locations evaluated. There mega-environments were formed, encompassing environments correlated positively. The lines MNC02-675F-4-9, MNC02-675F-9-3 and MNC02-701F-2 had the best performance within each mega-environment. The environment PRL10 and lines near this environment, such as MNC02-677F-2, MNC02-677F-5 and the control cultivar (BRS-Marataoã) could be classified as those of greater reliability, determined basically by the genotypic effects, with reduced G×E. Most of the environments evaluated were ideal for evaluation of G×E, since the genotypes were well discriminated on them. Therefore, the selection of genotypes with adaptability and superior performance for specific environments through the GGE-Biplot analysis was possible.

AbstractSorghum is a staple food crop in Niger and its production is constrained by sorghum midge and the use of low yielding, local sorghum varieties. To improve sorghum productivity, it is crucial to provide farmers with high yielding sorghum cultivars that are resistant to midge. We evaluated 282 genotypes in four environments of Niger Republic. Alpha (0.1) lattice with two replications was the experimental design. Genotype and genotype by environment (GGE) biplot analysis was used to study grain yield (GY) stability and G × E interactions. The results revealed that two distinct mega environments were present. Genotype L232 was the best genotype for GY in the first planting date at Konni and the first and second planting dates (PDs) at Maradi. Genotype L17 was the best for GY in the second PD at Konni. The second PD at Konni was the most discriminating environment while the first PD at Konni is suitable for selecting widely adapted genotypes for GY.

The development of new high-performance and stable cultivars requires test multi-environmental validation to deal with the effect of genotype by environment interaction (GEI). With the objective to determine adaptability and stability for grain yield in hybrids and rice varieties through the models AMMI, SREG and REML/BLUP. Six experiments were evaluated during the 2015-2016 dry season in the main producing regions of Venezuela. The ANOVA detected differences for genotype (G), environment (E) and their interaction (GEI), representing 19, 65 and 16 % of the total variation, respectively, with prevalence of hybrid by localities interaction. The first major components of the AMMI and GGE biplot models explained 77 and 83 % of GEI, respectively. The three models coincided and identified the hybrid RHA-180 (H6) with improved average performance, adapted and stable. The hybrid HIAAL (H3) was the most prominent. Among the checks, 'Pionero FL' (V3) was the most stable with moderate yield; the opposite occurred with ‘Soberana FL’ (V4) and ‘SD-20A’ (V1), that the AMMI and GGE biplot models identified with high and unstable performances and specific adaptation to locality INIA Guárico (L1), not coinciding with the mixed model. Two mega-environments were identified with the winning genotypes H6 and V4. There was divergence between AMMI and GGE biplot to identify discriminatory and representative locations. The Plot 199 (L3) was the most representative, while the location L1 discriminated better the genotypes. The GGE biplot analysis was more informative and complete for the GEI analysis.
