The study was undertaken during the 2022–23 to 2023–24 cropping seasons at the CSIR-CIMAP, Lucknow, India (80°28′ E 26⁰18 N, 49 m above sea level). The present investigation tried to analyze the GEI in geranium genotypes using the graphical approach of the GGE biplot and to identify lines with good reliability and performance. Geranium cultivars Bourbon, Algerian, CIM-Pawan, Kelkar, CIM-Bharat, and CIM-BIO 171 were examined in multi-year experiments on the Institute's farm using normal production procedures. Six geranium genotypes were grown and analyzed for two years using the GEI-based GGE Graphical biplot technique. There was significant variation among the geraniums in terms of mean yield, performance, and stability, indicating that the bi-plot approach helped with genotype discrimination under varied conditions. In the present investigation, the trait X1 (leaf length) is highly significant and positively correlated with traits such as X2 (leaf width), X3 (leaf area), X4 (leaf node length), X5 (petiole length), X6 (leaf weight), and X7 (leaf yield per plant), but negatively correlated with X8 (essential oil recovery) and X9. The feature X2 is vital and correlates positively with qualities X3, X4, X6, and X7. The two qualities, X8 and X9, were negatively correlated with X2. PC1 and 2 accounted for more than 77.9% of the yield performance variation. GGE biplot analysis revealed that CIM Bio 171 and CIM Bharat outperformed other genotypes regarding stability and mean essential oil yield. In contrast, the Bourbon genotype showed the least amount of yield stability. Thus, genotypes CIM Bio 171 and CIM Bharat will be confirmed and released for large-scale geranium production in India.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8799,"journal":{"name":"Biochemical Systematics and Ecology","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 104967"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143128539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
