GGEBiplot GUI

This package provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for constructing and interacting with GGE biplots in R. The GUI allows users to rank cultivars and environments, compare cultivar performance across environments, identify best cultivars in each environment, group environments by best cultivars, and evaluate cultivars based on yield and stability or environments based on discriminating ability and representativeness. It incorporates three-dimensional biplots via the rgl package and works on Windows, Linux, and MacOS. The package documentation provides information on the package usage and includes an example using yield data from wheat cultivar trials in Ontario, Canada.

Package: GGEBiplotGUI
Type: Package
Version: 1.0-9
Date: 2016-02-02
License: GPL (>=2)

The GGEBiplotGUI package provides a graphical user interface for the construction of, interaction
with, and manipulation of GGE biplots in R. Some of the functions of the package are: (i) ranking
the cultivars based on their performance in any given environment, (ii) ranking the environments
based on the relative performance of any given cultivar, (iii) comparing the performance of any
pair of cultivars in diferent environments, (iv) identifying the best cultivar in each environment,
(v) grouping the environments based on the best cultivars, (vi) evaluating the cultivars based on
both average yield and stability and (vii) evaluating the environments based on both discriminat-
ing ability and representativeness. Three-dimensional biplots are incorporated via the rgl package.
GGEBiplotGUI is designed to run under any of the major platforms (Windows, Linux and MacOS
X). It will be necessary to install the toolkit "bwidget".
