ABSTRACT

In the present investigation analysis of variance for ten genotypes of Rajmash (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) evaluated in four diverse environmental conditions during kharif, 2015, revealed that the genotypic variations differences were significant for all the characters. G x E interactions were significant for days to 50 per cent flowering, plant spread, number of pods  plant-1`, number of seeds  pod-1, seed yield  ha-1 , when tested against pooled deviation. The linear components of G x E interactions were significant for days to 50 per cent flowering, plant height, plant spread, pods plant-1, seeds pod-1 , 100-seed weight, seed yield plant-1 and seed yield ha -1, when tested against pooled deviation and pooled error. Based on the stability parameter of Eberhart and Russel model4, the genotypes, GRB-701 (days to 50 per cent flowering , seeds pod-1 and 100 seed weight), Varun (primary branches per plant), Vaghya (harvest index) and GRB-902(plant height, plant spread, pods plant-1, secondary branches plant-1 and seed yield plant-1 showed stability for normal environments.GRB-702 was considered as stable and average responsive to the all environments for yield and yield contributing characters.

Key words: G x E interaction, linear components, pooled deviation, stability parameters, Phaseolus vulgaris (L.)
