Identification of mega-environments and rice genotypes for general and specific adaptation to saline and alkaline stresses in India

Abstract In the present study, a total of 53 promising salt-tolerant genotypes were tested across 18 salt-affected diverse locations for three years. An attempt was made to identify ideal test locations and mega-environments using GGE biplot analysis. The CSSRI sodic environment was the most discrim...
