AMMI and GGE biplot analyses of Bambara groundnut [ (L.) Verdc.] for agronomic performances under three environmental conditions.

Introduction: The two most common styles to analyze genotype-by-environment interaction (GEI) and estimate genotypes are additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and genotype + genotype × environment (GGE) biplot. Therefore, the aim of this study was to find the winning genotype(s) under three locations, as well as to investigate the nature and extent of GEI effects on Bambara groundnut production.

Methods: The experiment was carried out in the fields of three environments with 15 Bambara groundnut accessions using the randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications each in Ibadan, Osun, and Odeda.

Genetic variation and characterization of Bambara groundnut [Vigna subterranea (L.) verdc.] accessions under multi-environments considering yield and yield components performance.

Bambara groundnut has significant role to play in terms of food security, even though researchers in agriculture have paid very little attention to the crop in the past. This study aimed to investigate the high-yielding accessions in three environments. A total of 34 phenological, vegetative and yield traits were measured and analyzed statistically with R software.
