Abstract Facing the trend of increasing population, how to increase maize grain yield is a very important issue to ensure
food security. In this study, 28 nationally approved maize hybrids were evaluated across 24 different climatic conditions for two consecutive years (2018–2019). The purpose of this study was to select high-yield with stable genotypes and identify important agronomic traits for maize breeding program improvement. The results of this
study showed that the genotype ╳ environment interaction effects of the 12 evaluated agronomic traits was highly
significant (P < 0.001). We introduced a novel multi-trait genotype-ideotype distance index (MGIDI) to select
genotypes… More >
