Genotype X Environment Interaction

Plant Genetics   Research Article

Selection of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes using a genotype plus genotype x environment interaction biplot

Authors: A.M. CorrĂ?ÂȘa, P.E. Teodoro, M.C. GonĂ?§alves, A. Santos and F.E. Torres

Recently, the genotype plus genotype x environment interaction (GGE) biplot methodology has been used to investigate genotype x environment interactions in several crop species, but has not been applied to the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) crop in Brazil. The aim of this study was to identify common bean genotypes that exhibit high grain yield and s.. Read More»

Using artificial neural networks to select upright cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) genotypes with high productivity and phenotypic stability

Authors: L.M.A. Barroso, P.E. Teodoro, M. Nascimento, F.E. Torres, A.C.C. Nascimento, C.F. Azevedo and F.R.F. Teixeira

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is grown in three Brazilian regions: the Midwest, North, and Northeast, and is consumed by people on low incomes. It is important to investigate the genotype x environment (GE) interaction to provide accurate recommendations for farmers. The aim of this study was to identify cowpea genotypes with hig..

Usefulness of the HMRPGV method for simultaneous selection of upland cotton genotypes with greater fiber length and high yield stability

Authors: F.J.C. Farias, L.P. Carvalho, J.L. Silva Filho and P.E. Teodoro

The harmonic mean of the relative performance of genotypic predicted value (HMRPGV) method has been used to measure the genotypic stability and adaptability of various crops. However, its use in cotton is still restricted. This study aimed to use mixed models to select cotton genotypes that simultaneously result in longer fiber length, higher fiber yield,.. Read More»

Biplot analysis of strawberry genotypes recommended for the State of Esp�­rito Santo

Authors: A.F. Costa, P.E. Teodoro, L.L. Bhering, N.R. Leal, F.D. Tardin and R.F. Daher

Most strawberry genotypes grown commercially in Brazil originate from breeding programs in the United States, and are therefore not adapted to the various soil and climatic conditions found in Brazil. Thus, quantifying the magnitude of genotype x environment (GE) interactions serves as a primary means for increasing average Brazilian strawberry yields, an.. Read More»

Adaptability and stability analysis of the juice yield of yellow passion fruit varieties

Authors: E.J. Oliveira, J.P.X. Freitas and O.N. Jesus

This study analyzed the genotype x environment interaction (GE) for the juice productivity (JuProd) of 12 yellow passion fruit varieties (Passiflora edulis Sims. f. flavicarpa Deg.) using additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) model and auxiliary parameters. The experiments were conducted.. Read More»

Genetic variability for iron and zinc content in common bean lines and interaction with water availability

Authors: H.S. Pereira, M.J. Del Peloso, P.Z. Bassinello, C.M. GuimarĂ?ÂŁes, L.C. Melo and L.C. Faria

The common bean is an important source of iron and zinc in humans. Increases in the contents of these minerals can combat mineral deficiencies, but these contents are influenced by environmental conditions. Thus, the objectives of this study were to investigate the interaction between common bean lines and water availability o.. Read More»

Adaptability and phenotypic stability of common bean genotypes through Bayesian inference

Authors: A.M. CorrĂ?ÂȘa, P.E. Teodoro, M.C. GonĂ?§alves, L.M.A. Barroso,M. Nascimento, A. Santos and F.E. Torres

This study used Bayesian inference to investigate the genotype x environment interaction in common bean grown in Mato Grosso do Sul State, and it also evaluated the efficiency of using informative and minimally informative a priori distributions. Six trials were conducted in randomized blocks, and the grain yield of 13 common .. Read More»

Adaptability and stability of soybean genotypes in off-season cultivation

Authors: R.O. Batista, R.L. Hamawaki, L.B. Sousa, A.P.O. Nogueira and O.T. Hamawaki

The oil and protein contents of soybean grains are important quantitative traits for use in breeding. However, few breeding programs perform selection based on these traits in different environments. This study assessed the adaptability and stability of 14 elite early soybean breeding lines in off-season cultivation with respect to yield, and oil and prot.. Read More»
