Summary

Twenty soyabean genotypes, grown in 12 environments, showed significant g × e interactions for grain yield and most of the other traits. The g × s interactions were unimportant, but the g × 1 and g × 1 × s were of considerable magnitude for most traits. The experiments provided estimates of genotypic, environmental and genotype-environmental variance. The presence of a high environmental variance for grain yield suggested the possibility of raising yield levels through improved management practices.
