GGE Biplot Analysis: A Graphical Tool for Breeders, Geneticists, and Agronomists
Editorial Reviews
Review
"The objective (of this book) is to demonstrate the power of this (biplot) graphical analysis and enable other scientists to effectively use the methodology and software to gain more insight into their own data. I believe that Yan and Kang have achieved this objective and that someone who has not used this ordination approach before could do so with this book as their guide. "A major advantage of biplot methodology is that it can be applied to any two-way data with multiple entries and multiple attributes in order to obtain a better understanding of the relationships among entries, relationships among attributes, and the interactions between entries and attributes. Hence the material in this book will be of benefit to any scientists working with such data. I believe no other book covers this methodology and software in equivalent depth and breadth. "I have no hesitation in recommending this book to breeders, geneticists, agronomists, ecologists, and to biometricians working with them. The biplot methodology greatly enhances the ability to understand and interpret two-way data and this graphical analysis can be readily implemented with the GGEbiplot software." - K. E. Basford, in Biometrics, Vol 59, 2003
Book Description
The newly developed GGE biplot methodology is a superior approach to the graphical analysis of research data that may revolutionize the way researchers analyze data and increase their productivity. GGE Biplot Analysis systematically presents the theory and applications of the GGE biplot methodology in quantitative genetics and plant breeding. The first part of the text is devoted to general aspects of genotype-by-environment interaction and stability analyses in crop breeding. The second part is a thorough treatment of the GGE biplot approach and applications in the life and agricultural sciences.
