The identification of superior genotypes and mega-environments on the basis of multiple traits is a key objective of multi-environment trials in cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). The objective of this study was to examine the genetic variation and genotype 3 environment interaction (GEI) effect...

Genetic variation and genotype X environment interaction for yield and other agronomic traits in cassava in Nigeria
Genotype x environment (G x E) interactions frequently complicate breeding efforts and delay progress in selection. The cassava green spider mite (CGM) (Mononychellus tanajoa Bondar) is a serious constraint to Cassava production in Africa. Nine cassava genotypes were grown at 6 representative loc...
and influenced the relative ranking of genotypes across environments. The magnitude 01 the G x E interaction effect for CGM was higher than that for genotypes. Clone 63397 had the smallest interaction for CGM, showing stability in response to the pest across agroecologies. TME 1 suffered the leas...
