Assessing genotype by environment interaction in case of heterogeneous measurement error.

چکیده
Considerable effort has been devoted to establish genotype by environment interaction (G x E) in case of unmeasured genetic and environmental influences. Although it has been outlined by various authors that the appearance of G x E can be dependent on properties of the given measurement scale, a non-biased method to assess G x E is still lacking. We show that the incorporation of an explicit measurement model can remedy potential bias due to ceiling and floor effects. By means of a simulation study it is shown that the use of sum scores can lead to biased estimates whereas the proposed method is unbiased. The power of the suggested method is illustrated by means of a second simulation study with different sample sizes and G x E effect sizes.

Bayesian Modeling of Heterogeneous Error and Genotype 3 Environment Interaction Variances
An important assumption in the analysis of multienvironment cultivar trials is homogeneity of error and genotype 3 environment interaction variances. When variances are heterogeneous, the best estimators of performance are obtained by weighting inversely to variance components. However, because variances are almost never known and must be estimated, the additional error introduced into the mode...

The objectives of this study were to assess the genotype (G) by environment (E) interaction of grain yield of durum wheat(Triticum durum Desf.) based on parametric models, additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and joint linear regression models; and compare the relative efficiency of the two models in explaining the GE effects. Twenty-three genotypes were evaluated across ...

A G × E performance (interaction, profile) plot for showing genotype-by-environment data is discussed. Three versions of such a plot are compared: the regular performance plot; the performance plot based on coded data (environment-centered performance plot), in which the environment means of a trait are subtracted from data; and the performance plot based on data standardized in environments (e...
