English Abstract

The study was conducted in three locations Erbil, Sulaimani and Kalar, during fall season 2015 to estimate the homeostasis and genetic resultant at each location.

The experimental materials to compares eight hybrids, the experiment were laid out in randomize complete block design (RCBD) with three replications.

Data was recorded to 50% tasselling date, plant and ear height, ear length, ear/plant, 300 kernel weight and yield.

The results showed significant differences among characters at each location and among (genotype x environment) interaction for yield characters.

Hybrid 4 showed the higher yield.

The homeostasis and genetic resultant varied for the characters, the characters 50% tasseling, plant and ear height, ear length showed high homeostasis and genetic resultant, while the yield and 300 kernel weight show low homeostasis and genetic resultant, because of environmental interaction.
