Abstract

                                Sixty five genotypes of black gram consisting of fifteen parents and their fifty hybrids. were evaluated for stability in four environments differentiated by locations. Both linear and non-linear components of G x E interaction were significant for clusters/plant and pods/plant, while only non-linear component was significant for grain yield. The study of stability parameters revealed that the parent T9 and hybrids ADT 3 x TAU 5 were found to be stable over the I environments with desirable high mean yield.
