Abstract
Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an important cereal crop, which receives the most attention of specialists in plant breeding and production as worldwide. The Knowledge of the interaction between genotypes and environment with yield and yield components is a key aspect of effective selection in crop improvement. Therefore, the objective of this study was: to identify Adaptable bread wheat variety/ies with high level of grain yield and yield stability across locations. The study used 16 bread wheat released varieties, against local check at Fitche Agricultural Research Center (FiARC) in 2020-2022 cropping season. Ten important agronomic traits data were evaluated. Analysis of variance noticed significant difference, among varieties 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 76.6% of the total variation. The genotype and genotype environmental integration were significant and accounted for 8 and 13.1%, respectively. Principal component (PCA) 1 and 2 accounted for 6.5 and 3.5% of the GEI, respectively, with a total of 10% variation. Generally, Sanete and Dandaa varieties were identified for yielding ability and stability, and recommended for the study area and similar agro-ecologies.
