Genetic studies on yield and yield quality are becoming benchmarks for farmers and industry in selecting and developing varieties. Evaluations that combine various stability statistics can provide more accurate information to select the ideal genotype. This study aims to identify the effect of genotype by environment interactions (GEIs) for yield and yield quality, to select high yield and stable sweet potato genotypes, as well as to select superior genotypes based on yield and yield quality. Three different environments in West Java, Indonesia, were used to test the sweet potato genotypes using a randomized block design that was repeated three times. Highly significant effects of sweet potato genotypes (G), environments (E), and GEIs were observed for yield and yield quality. The Combined ANOVA showed that GEIs effect contributed 54.88% for yield, 40.01% for sweetness, 10.46% for moisture content, 68.80% for tuber diameter, and 72.57% for tuber length from the sum of square. Five most high and stable yield on sweet potato genotypes identified by all measures, includes G4, G6, G7, G31, and G32. Genotype by yield*traits (GYT) selected seven genotypes that have superior in yield and yield quality, they were G7, G15, G4, G20, G6, G31, and G14. Based on stability measurements and GYT biplots, the genotypes G4, G6, G7, and G31 are in both slices. So that the four genotypes have high, stable yields, and have a good combination of traits for yield quality. Our findings can be used for improvement cultivation involving partner companies, partner institutions, and farmers, and the selected genotypes can be release as superior varieties candidate. |
