The study analysed lemongrass using additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI), genotype +genotype-by-environment (GGE), and genotype-environment interaction biplot analysis. Stable lemongrass genotypes were identified using AMMI stability value (ASV), stability index, and yield relative to environment maximum (YREM) computation. To investigate the current study's stability and adaption patterns, a set of six advanced breeding clones and two control varieties, Krishna and CIM-Shikhar, were tested in triplicate over four years using a randomized complete block design (RCBD). The genotype x environment linear (G x E) component and genotype variance analysis were significant for herbage, oil, and citral content, respectively. The G x E interaction was found to be 19.12% (citral), 31.92% (herb), and 4.34% (oil) in the AMMI analysis of variance. Trait variation was found to be a stable factor in the performance of many genotypes; no genotype demonstrated high levels of stability across multiple characteristics. Stable clones with optimal performance were identified as clones 8 and 3 for citral content, clone 5 for herb yield, and clone 1 for oil yield, as indicated by the biplot of the mean yield and AMMI stability value. Clone 8 was found to be a stable clone for citral content, with a unity YREM based on estimations. Nevertheless, clones 7 and 6 were steady performers for both oil content and herb production, respectively. No clones demonstrated unity YREM for either characteristic.
