Associations among International CIMMYT Bread Wheat Yield Testing Locations in High Rainfall Areas and Their Implications for Wheat Breeding

A good understanding of how the target environments for a breeding program differentiate the germplasm with respect to yield is crucial and allows plant breeders to better target their germplasm. To determine the relationships among high rainfall yield testing locations, yield data from 8 yr of CIMMYT's High Rainfall Wheat Yield Trial (HRWYT) were analyzed by shifted multiplicative model (SHMM) and incremental sum of squares (ISS) classification...
