Multi-traits and stability-based selection of high-yielding mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) genotypes in Benin

Abstract

) was moderate for these traits. Days to 50% flowering and hundred-seed weight exhibited high potential for genetic gain through selection. AMMI 1 and WAASBY biplots identified mungbean lines G83, G109, G44 and G134 combining high yield and stability. Based on MGIDI factor analysis, 20 multi-trait superior genotypes with favorable selection differentials for grain yield and yield-related traits were selected. Environmental variability among the three test sites significantly influenced yield performance, highlighting the importance of site-specific recommendations. Overall, the combined use of WAASBY, MGIDI, and AMMI analyses provides a robust framework for the selection of climate-resilient, high-yielding, and stable mungbean genotypes adapted to diverse production systems. The selected genotypes are promising candidates for advanced yield trials and participatory evaluation for boosting mungbean production in Benin.
