Abstract
An experiment was conducted to study green
cane yield stability and adaptability involving twenty three sweet sorghum
genotypes and one hybrid in four contrasting sowing dates. The objective of the
research is to analyze genotype-environment interaction (GxE) on multi-seasonal
data for the juice yield (l/ha) parameter of sweet sorghum. Therefore,
stability analysis was carried out by Eberhart and Russell 1966 model to
identify stable genotypes for juice yield which is great in demand by
distilleries. From the comparative ranking of the environment, it was clear
that the kharif sowing showed positive environmental indicators for
juice yield (l/ha). Whereas, rabi and summer seasons showed
negative environmental indicators, suggesting that the environment is
unfavorable for this trait. Based on the stability analysis, the genetic
standard the genotype RSSV-594, RSSV-512, RSSV-585, RSSV-466, RSSV-509, and
RSSV-589 showed average stability, while CSH-47 performed below average. The
genotypes such as RSSV-552 and RSSV-313 exhibited unstable performance across
different environments.
