Stability analysis. SHUKLA'S STABILITY VARIANCE AND KANG'S
Description
This procedure calculates the stability variations as well as the statistics of selection for the yield and the stability. The averages of the genotype through the different environment repetitions are required for the calculations. The mean square error must be calculated from the joint variance analysis.
Usage
stability.par(data,rep,MSerror,alpha=0.1,main=NULL,cova = FALSE,name.cov=NULL,
file.cov=0,console=FALSE)
Arguments
data |
matrix of averages, by rows the genotypes and columns the environment |
rep |
Number of repetitions |
MSerror |
Mean Square Error |
alpha |
Label significant |
main |
Title |
cova |
Covariable |
name.cov |
Name covariable |
file.cov |
Data covariable |
console |
logical, print output |
Details
Stable (i) determines the contribution of each genotype to GE interaction by calculating var(i); (ii) assigns ranks to genotypes from highest to lowest yield receiving the rank of 1; (iii) calculates protected LSD for mean yield comparisons; (iv) adjusts yield rank according to LSD (the adjusted rank labeled Y); (v) determines significance of var(i) usign an aproximate F-test; (vi) assigns stability rating (S) as follows: -8, -4 and -2 for var(i) significant at the 0.01, 0.05 and 0.10 probability levels, and 0 for nonsignificant var(i) ( the higher the var(i), the less stable the genotype); (vii) sums adjusted yield rank, Y, and stability rating, S, for each genotype to determine YS(i) statistic; and (viii) calculates mean YS(i) and identifies genotypes (selection) with YS(i) > mean YS(i).
