Exploring the genotype-environment interaction of bread wheat in ambient and high-temperature planting conditions: a rigorous investigation

Abstract The current study is carried out to find out the stable wheat genotype in ambient and high temperature planting conditions. The objective was to estimate the genotype x environment interactions through various univariates and multivariate techniques. Twenty wheat genotypes were evaluated at Jabalpur, Narmadapuram, and Sagar districts of Madhya Pradesh, India, across cropping years 2019–20 and 2021–21, considering both timely and late planting conditions. The univariate and multivariate stability analysis were performed based on per-plant grain yield and grain filling rate. Our result revealed that environment, genotype, and GEI effects were significant (P
