Multi Environment Trials Analysis
Description
Performs stability analysis of multi-environment trial data
using parametric and non-parametric methods. Parametric methods
includes Additive Main Effects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI)
analysis by Gauch (2013) , Ecovalence
by Wricke (1965), Genotype plus Genotype-Environment (GGE) biplot
analysis by Yan & Kang (2003) , geometric
adaptability index by Mohammadi & Amri (2008)
, joint regression analysis by Eberhart
& Russel (1966) ,
genotypic confidence index by Annicchiarico (1992), Murakami & Cruz's
(2004) method, power law residuals (POLAR) statistics by Doring et al.
(2015) , scale-adjusted coefficient of
variation by Doring & Reckling (2018) ,
stability variance by Shukla (1972) ,
weighted average of absolute scores by Olivoto et al. (2019a)
, and multi-trait stability index by
Olivoto et al. (2019b) .
Non-parametric methods includes superiority index by Lin & Binns
(1988) , nonparametric measures of phenotypic
stability by Huehn (1990) , TOP third
statistic by Fox et al. (1990) . Functions for
computing biometrical analysis such as path analysis, canonical
correlation, partial correlation, clustering analysis, and tools for
inspecting, manipulating, summarizing and plotting typical
multi-environment trial data are also provided.
