Abstract

Stability analysis for protein and carbohydrate content was carried out in 30 diverse genotypes of kodo millet (Paspalum serobiculatum L.) grown at four locations. Genotype X environment linear interactions were significant for both the traits. Genotypes IPS-147, IPS-200, IPS-198, IPS-112, IPS-66, IPS-138, IPS-115 appeared stable; hence they may be of use in breeding stable cultivars for these traits.
