The recently developed GGE biplot methodology is a superior approach to the graphical analysis of research data that may revolutionize the way researchers analyze data and increase their productivity. GGE Biplot Analysis systematically presents the theory and applications of the GGE biplot methodology in quantitative genetics and plant breeding. The first part of the text is devoted to general aspects of genotype-by-environment interaction and stability analyses in crop breeding. The second part is a thorough treatment of the GGE biplot approach and applications in the life and agricultural sciences.

Klappentext
Research data is expensive and precious, yet it is seldom fully utilized due to our ability of comprehension. Graphical display is desirable, if not absolutely necessary, for fully understanding large data sets with complex interconnectedness and interactions. The newly developed GGE biplot methodology is a superior approach to the graphical analys
