Cultivar Evaluation and Essential Test Locations Identification for Sugarcane Breeding in China

Figure 2

Stability of cane and sugar yields based on GGE-Biplot analysis. The circle represents the average environment. The single arrow red line is average environment-axis, projecting each cultivar’s average yield from all evaluation sites. Through the original point and perpendicular to the red line, the double arrow blue line measures the vector stability between cultivar and environment. The closer to the average environment-axis, the more stable the cultivar’s performance. Refer to Figure 1 legend for Panel, PC1, PC2, numerical codes for evaluation sites, and codes for cultivars.
