Using Huehn’s Nonparametric Stability Statistics to Investigate Genotype × Environment Interaction

Genotype × environment interaction (GEI) is of special interest in breeding programs to identify adaptation targets and test locations as well as to determine the most favorable genotypes. There are several nonparametric procedures used to interpret the GEI in multi-environmental trials. The purposes of this investigation were (i) to compare the effect of correction on Huehn’s nonparametric stability statistics and (ii) to use nonparametric...
