Abstract
PONCE-ENCINAS, María Corina et al. Genotype-environment interaction of yield in yellow corn hybrids, using AMMI and SREG. Rev. Mex. Cienc. Agríc [online]. 2022, vol.13, n.7, pp.1247-1258. Epub Nov 22, 2022. ISSN 2007-0934. https://doi.org/10.29312/remexca.v13i7.3070.
It is indispensable for corn (Zea mays L.) plant breeding programs to select homogeneous materials, with high yield and with stable agronomic attributes; also, that they have a good adaptability in contrasting environments. The objective of the work was to evaluate the stability and genotype-environment interaction of the yield of 36 hard yellow corn hybrids, evaluated in seven environments of Peru, during 2016-2018, these materials were analyzed using the AMMI (additive main effects and multiplicative interaction) and SREG (site regression) models. The design used in each experiment was a 6×6 lattice with three repetitions, and the response variable was grain yield. A combined analysis of variance was performed, in which statistical differences between them (p≤ 0.05) were detected, then the Tukey mean test (p≤ 0.05) was applied, finally the AMMI and SREG models were run and the biplot graphs of each statistical model were obtained. Of the interaction between PC1 and PC2, AMMI explained 45.5% and 15.3%, respectively, and SREG with 59.8% and 12.2%, for the same components. The trilinear hybrids Dk-5005 and AG-01 outperformed the double-cross hybrids. The AMMI model detected the existing GE interaction in grain yield, and the SREG accurately grouped the assessment sites into six mega-environments. The three environments of La Molina and that of Huánuco identified the two hybrids (Dk-5005 and AG-01) with the highest grain yield (11.524 and 11.359 t ha-1, respectively).
