Abstract: | Summary Twenty selected okra genotypes were evaluated in four different environments for stability of performance, measured by days to flowering, number of branches per plant, plant height, number of pods per plant, pod weight, and pod yield per plant. An analysis of the components of G × E interaction showed that it might not always be adequately explained by a linear function of the environment. The heritability estimates for the response of the characters showed that the number of branches per plant was under strong genotypic influence.
