Stability analysis of foliar disease resistant groundnut genotypes (Arachis hypogaea L.)

Fifteen foliar disease resistant groundnut genotypes and one local variety (VRI 4) were evaluated over four seasons in asingle location to identify the stable high yielding genotypes. Significant G X E interaction showed the differentialperformance of genotypes over different environments / seasons....

Description
Summary:Fifteen foliar disease resistant groundnut genotypes and one local variety (VRI 4) were evaluated over four seasons in asingle location to identify the stable high yielding genotypes. Significant G X E interaction showed the differentialperformance of genotypes over different environments / seasons. Stability analysis revealed that only one genotype(ICGV 92093) had near unity regression coefficient coupled with non-significant deviation from regression and highmean kernel yield. Hence, the genotype may be recommended over wide range of environments / seasons.
