Figure 1. The "which-won-where" view of the GGE biplot based on the G x E data in Table 1. The data were not transformed ("Transform = 0"), not scaled ("Scaling = 0"), and were environment-centered ("Centering = 2"). The biplot was based on environment-focused singular value partitioning ("SVP = 2") and therefore is appropriate for visualizing the relationships among environments. It explained 78% of the total G+GE. The genotypes are labeled as G1 to G18 and the environments are labeled as E1 to E9.

Figure 2. The "mean vs. stability" view of the GGE biplot based on a subset of the G x E data in Table 1. The data were not transformed ("Transform = 0"), not scaled ("Scaling = 0"), and were environment-centered ("Centering = 2"). The biplot was based on genotype-focused singular value partitioning ("SVP = 1") and therefore is appropriate for visualizing the similarities among genotypes. It explained 79.5% of the total G+GE for the subset.

Figure 3. The "discriminating power vs. representativeness" view of the GGE biplot based on a subset of the G x E data in Table 1. The data were not transformed ("Transform = 0"), not scaled ("Scaling = 0"), and were environment-centered ("Centering = 2"). The biplot was based on genotype-focused singular value partitioning ("SVP = 2") and therefore is appropriate for visualizing the relationships among environments. It explained 79.5% of the total G+GE for the subset.
