Abstract

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an important cereal crop, which receives the most attention of specialists in plant breeding and production worldwide. Knowledge of the interaction between genotypes and environment with yield and yield components is a principal aspect of effective selection in crop improvement. Therefore, the objective of this study was: to identify bread wheat genotypes with high level of grain yield and yield stability and insect pest tolerant across locations. The study used 15 bread wheat genotypes, against one local and two standard checks (Liban and Kingbird) at Haro Sabu Agricultural Research Center (HSARC) in 2017-2018 cropping season. Ten agronomic traits and four economically important disease reaction data were evaluated. Analysis of variance detected significant difference, among genotypes in both separated and combined analysis of variance. The combined ANOVA and the additive main effects and multiplicative interactions (AMMI) analysis for grain yield across environments exhibited significantly affected by environments, which explained 65.06% of the total variation. The genotype and genotype environmental interation were significant and accounted for 13.34 and 9.44%, respectively. Pricipal component (PCA) 1 and 2 accounted for 7.88 and 1.15% of the GEI, respectively, with a total of 9.03% variation. Generally, G6 and G3 were identified as ideal genotypes for yielding ability and stability, tolerant to diseases and use as parents in future breeding programs.
