Abstract

Improved varieties play an important role in enhancing production and productivity of a given crops and there by contributing to the change farmers’ livelihood and other organs those engaged with crop production. But, there are different agro-ecologies in Ethiopia, that challenging continues production of crops and crops respond differently to this different range of agro-ecologies. Therefore, there is the need to get high yielding and stable improved varieties across different location by conducting multi-location or multi-environmental trails. By considering this condition, this research experimental activity was conducted at three different locations (Bore, Abayi and AnaSora) for two consecutive years 2020 and 2021 main cropping seasons. Randomized complete block design with three replications was used as experimental design. Twenty (20) bread wheat genotypes included as testing materials and were evaluated against two standard checks (Danda’a and Hidase). The experimental unit had 2.5 m length by 1.2m width was used for this trial with an area of 3m2. The best genotype that gave high grain yield and as the same time stable across locations was selected. This newly selected and released genotype with the pedigree of CHEN/AEGILOPSSQUARROSA (TAUS (//BCN/3/BAV92/4BERKUT, was named as MIJU officially. This variety was developed by bore agricultural research center, Oromia Agricultural Research Institute. AMMI and GGE biplot analysis, revealed that genotype ETBW7082 (MIJU) is stable and high yielding (5.9 ton/ha) with a yield advantage of 35% over the best standard check Hidase. Thus, this new variety, MIJU was released in 2022 after decision committees of ministry of agriculture plant variety release, protection and seed quality control directorate officially and recommended for wider productions.
