Stability Analysis of Genotype × Environment Interaction Effect on Sugar Yield in Sugar Beet Hybrids
Authors
Abstract:
Testing plant varieties under different regions is necessary to assess their stability. In this study, 17 sugar beet genotypes were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with six replications in five regions including Karaj, Hamedan, Miandoab, Mashhad, and Shiraz. After checking the homogeneity of mean squares in five experiments by Bartlett’s test, analysis of the combined was performed for sugar yield. In this analysis, location, genotype and genotype × location interaction effects were significant. Based on regression coefficient and deviation from regression parameters, genotypes G2, G6, G9 and G13 were the most stable genotypes. Genotypes G2, G3, G5 and G6 had the highest stability based on Shukla’s stability variance and Wrick’s ecovalence. Based on superiority measure, genotypes G6 and G9 and based on coefficient of variation genotypes G2 and G5 were identified as the most stable genotypes. Using coefficient of determination, genotypes G3, G5 and G6 were selected and by Tai’s regression method, genotypes G2, G6 and G12 genotypes were selected as the most stable genotypes having sugar yield higher than average. Based on the above mentioned methods, genotype G2 was recognized as the most suitable genotype for sugar yield stability.

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Sugar is a tonic that produces a large amount of energy in the diet of the world's population. The position of sugar beet in providing part of the sugar required by human society is not hidden from anyone. Given the needs of society, breeding sugar beet hybrids that is high in quantity and quality is inevitable. In addition to plant genetics and ...

Rhizoctonia root rot disease is considered as one of the important diseases in sugar beet. Using resistant cultivars decreses production costs, especially application of fungicides and increases the efficiency in controlling of root rot disease. Therefore, growing of resistant cultivars is considered the best approach for disease control. To achieve this goal and to determine yield potential of...
full textYield Potential of Sugar Beet – Have We Hit the Ceiling?
The yield of sugar beet has continuously increased in the past decades. The question arises, whether this progress will continue in the future. A key factor for increasing yield potential of the crop is breeding progress. It was related to a shift in assimilate partitioning in the plant toward more storage carbohydrates (sucrose), whereas structural carbohydrates (leaves, cell wall compounds) u...

A field experiment was carried out at the Research Center of Barkat-e-Jovein, Jovein agro-industries, Northeastern Iran, during 2008 to evaluate the effect of concentration and time of boron foliar application on root yield and quality of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris). Treatments consisted of 3 application times (30, 45 and 60 DAP) and 4 application rates (spraying with concentrations of 0, 4, 8 a...
