Twenty nine bunch groundnut genotypes were evaluated under four environments
to estimate the stability parameters for 100 seed weight. Both predictable and non
predictable components of genotypes x environment (G x E) interaction were
important for expression of this trait. However, .linear portion was significantly
higher than nonlinear portion. Seventeen genotypes showed linear and 11 genotypes
nonlinear sensitivity. Both the components of G x E interaction were present in
gem>type JB-224. The bold seeded genotype EC-100827 and small seeded genotype
JB-215 showed wider adaptation. The bold seeded genotype JB-210 and small seeded
genotype J-18 were highly responsive and suitable for favourable environments.
Bold seeded genotype J-17, GG-2, J(E)-l, JB-223 and CGC-3 as well as small seeded
genotypes ICGS-11, J-11, NRGS-4, J(E)-l, JB-187, J(E)-336 and GAUG-1 were suitable
for adverse environments.
