Abstract:
Twenty Spanish bunch groundnut genotypes were evaluated at Agricultural College Farm,
Bapatla during late kharif 2012, rabi 2012-13 and summer 2013 thus making three
environments. Pooled analysis of variance for pod yield per hectare indicated significant
differences for genotypes, the environments, environment across genotypes and their
interactions. These significant interactions indicated uneven performance of the genotypes across
the environments. The genotypes, Tirupati 3, Abhaya, Greeshma, K 1535, JL 24 and K 1622
were stable over three environments for pod yield per hectare. These genotypes were more
responsive to wide range of environments. In other words, these genotypes could be the most
stable, since they had small and insignificant deviations, and had the highest yielding
potentiality. |
