Assessment of phenotypic stability and adaptability of elite field pea (Pisum sativum L) genotypes in Arsi zone, Ethiopia

Field pea is a cool-season legume that thrives in cool, semiarid climates and can be grown in a wide range of soil types, from light sandy to heavy clay. Thirteen field pea genotypes underwent evaluation in seven different environments during the main growing seasons of 2016–2017. The study aimed to identify pea genotypes that are adapted and well-suited for commercial production for Ethiopian farmers and seed producers. The experiment was arranged using a randomized complete block design with four replications. The combined analysis of variance indicated highly significant differences (P
