Abstract:Summary A desirable genotype is a genotype performing well in a chosen set of environments. Three methods for identification of desirable genotypes were assessed in two cabbage data sets: regression analysis, multidimensional scaling of dissimilarity matrices, and biplot of deviation matrices. Using the regression approach is not recommended mainly for two reasons: (1) it is difficult to identify the desirable genotypes since one has to unify three parameters into one decision; (2) the regression method failed to identify the most desirable genotypes in one of the data sets. Multidimensional scaling and the biplot method were in accordance with each other and with the mean tables when different subsets where compared. Consequently, they were considered more adequate for identifying desirable genotypes. In cases where rank 2 approximation of the analysed matrix was justified, the biplot revealed more information in one display and was, therefore, considered particularly useful in plant breeding for larger target areas.
