Abstract

Phenotypic stability was studied in 26 divergent genotypes of kodo millet for four years. The results were analysed on the basis of stability parameters for days to flower and maturity, and plant height. Variance due to genotypes, environments, and G x E interaction were significant for all the characters when tested against pooled error but plant height was not significant when tested against pooled deviation. Only genotype KMV 20 was highly stable for all the three characters studied.
