GENSTAT programs for performing Muir's alternative partitioning of genotype-by-environment interaction.

Abstract excerpt

Genotype-by-environment (GE) interaction exists when different cultivars or strains have different phenotypic responses to environmental variation (Merila and Fry 1998). The phenomenon is of major concern in plant breeding, as it can limit gains in selecting superior cultivars. In animal breeding, the problem is also an important issue because breeding stocks are developed by a few companies but are used...
