Abstract
The Pennisetum americanum parents used in a 15 X 15 diallel, excluding reciprocals, and their 105 F1s were grown in three environments. Regression analysis of pooled data on 1000-grain weight revealed that, although both linear and nonlinear components of genotype X environment interaction were significant, the magnitude of the former was the greater, indicating the possibility of predicting the trait across environments. The components of genotype X environmental interaction bi (responsiveness = the regression coefficient) and S2di (stability = deviation from the regression slope) for the trait appeared to be controlled by independent genetic systems
