Abstract

A study on stability analysis was carried out on groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) genotypes grown at multilocation over two cropseasons. Based on additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) analysis, the first two IPCAs explained 91.93% of the GEIvariation (74.84 and 17.09% for IPCA1 and IPCA2, respectively). Based on AMMI 2, the best genotype for environments RA1 and RA2 was 201. The genotypes, ICG192 and ICG130 were found suitable for environments TA1 and TA2, respectively. ICG178 was better adapted to environment MA2, whereas ICG140 and the control NC2 were the best genotypes for environment RA2. In the GGE biplot, PC1 and PC2 explained 81.22 and 13.33% of the total GGE variance. Based on the ideal genotype selection index (IGSI), the genotypes, ICG115, ICG201, and ICG178 were stable and can be used in the breeding programs to develop new varieties.
