Abstract. Fadli M, Farid M, Yassi A, Nasaruddin, Anshori MF, Nur A, Suratman. 2021. Evaluation of the advanced yield trial on tropical wheat (Triticum aestivum) mutant lines using selection index and multivariate analysis. Biodiversitas 23: 540-547. The development of adaptive wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) mutant lines in tropical climate is a long-term solution. The advanced yield trial is an important stage in this development, which is carried out using a selection index and multivariate analysis. This study aims to determine the selection effectiveness of tropical wheat mutant lines by using a selection index and multivariate analysis. the study was conducted in three locations, which included two locations for the follow-up yield test in Kelara Village and Ujung Bulu Village (South Sulawesi, Indonesia), and the third location for the selection validation in Padang Magek Village (West Sumatra, Indonesia). This study was designed by a nested Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD), with replications nested in locations. The samples included 16 wheat genotypes (13 mutant lines and three comparison varieties) that were replicated three times. The result showed that the selection of tropical wheat mutant lines using selection index and multivariate analysis were considered effectively with high determination value of 0.57 (57%). The results of the selection index show that seven lines were recommended for multi-location trials since they had a better selection index potential than Dewata variety.

Genetic Characteristics of F2 Populations Obtained Through Double and Three-Way Crosses in Cayenne Peppers

“…However, in the selection process, using many attributes is not optimal because it reduces selection effectiveness hence, needing the main and supporting traits. These results were in line with the findings of Anshori et al (2022), Fadli et al (2022. Thus, the effective selection criteria with the most influence on production traits are imperative in the selection process.…”

“…Therefore, the relationship between the main character and other characters in this study is known through correlation analysis and path analysis. The results of previous analyzes indicate that almost all observed characters can become selection characters, however the use of all observed characters in selection can reduce the effectiveness of the selection itself, so main characters and supporting characters are needed that are in line with the plant breeding program (Mustafa et al 2019;Anshori et al 2021;Fadli et al 2022;Farid et al 2022). Determining character as a selection criterion can be seen based on the correlation between the main character and supporting characters, as well as the magnitude of the direct influence of the supporting character on the main character, which can be done through correlation and path analysis (Khapte and Jansirani 2014;Mustafa et al 2019;Akbar et al 2021).…”

“…The selection process for these three populations considerably showed adequate based on the analysis of variance and heritability. However, the use of all characters in the selection reduces selection effectiveness, so the yield characters and yield supporting characters have to align with the objectives of the breeding program as effective selection criteria (Sabouri et al, 2008;Mustafa et al, 2019;Anshori et al, 2021;Fadli et al, 2022;Farid et al, 2022). Determining the character as a selection criterion can be seen from the magnitude of the direct influence on the main character (Lelang, 2017).…”
