DECIPHER INTERACTIONS EFFECTS OF WHEAT GENOTYPESEVALUATED IN NORTHERN HILLS ZONE BY AMMI, BLUP ANDNON PARAMETRIC MEASURESAjay Verma and Gyanendra Pratap SinghAbstract Significant variations due to environments 38.3%, GxE interactions 32.1%, and genotypes 10.9% wereobserved by AMMI analysis. ASV1 and ASV measures recommended G13, G2, G11 genotypes. Based on97.8% of GxE interactions sum of squares MASV1 identified G13, G3, G7 whereas MASV settled for G13,G1, and G7 genotypes. BLUP-based measures HMGV, RPGV, HMRPGV identified G9, G6, G13 genotypes.Non parametric composite measure NPi(1) observed suitability of G3, G13, G12 whereas NPi(2),NPi(3), NPi(4)identified G3, G10, G12 genotypes. Biplot analysis observed 65.4% of the total variation in the consideredmeasures accounted by PC1 and PC2. Cluster of IPC2, NPi(2), NPi(3), NPi(4) placed adjacent to BLUP based measures in the same quadrant. ASV, ASV1, MASV, MASV1, clustered with Si1 ,Si2, Si3, Si4, Si5, Si6, Si7 BL Std and NPi(1), BLCV, IPC7 observed in different quadrant of biplot analysis. |
