Abstract. Anggraeni TDA, Waluyo B, Sugiharto AN, Kuswanto. 2022. Genetic diversity analysis among 123 accessions of castor (Ricinus communisL.) using SSR marker and its association to agronomic traits. Biodiversitas 23: 1211-1221. Castor (Ricinus communis L.) breeding program targets to create dwarf-type plants suitable for mechanical harvesting. Characterization of plantsusing morphological and molecular markers can enhance the successful breeding program. This studyaimed to investigate the diversity of castor accessionsusing Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers and find the SSR markers that are significantly associated with the agronomic traits. The castor germplasm collection consisting of 123 accessions from the islands throughout Indonesia, breeding lines, and introducedaccessions displayed a moderate genetic diversity. The germplasm collection showed high variation in plant height, node length average, number of nodes, 100 seed weight, and oil content. The association analysis using GLM (General Linear Model) and MLM (Mixed Linear Model) could detect six associations between SSR marker alleles and agronomic traits. Among the marker alleles, two marker alleles had an overlap association. RcSSR-12_175 had an association with plant height and flowering day, RcSSR-23_113 had an association with node length average and branch number, and RcSSR-4_125 had an association with seed weight/raceme. This finding could provide information on Indonesia’s castor accession status. The linked-trait SSR markers are useful in marker-assisted selection for breeding high yield dwarf type-castor.

Abstract. Hanifah FL, Saptadi D, Kendarini N, Kuswanto. 2026. Genotype × environment interactions and yield stability of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) genotypes in different altitudes. Biodiversitas 27 (5): d270515. https://doi.org/10.13057/biodiv/d270515. Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is an important vegetable crop widely cultivated for its high nutritional and economic value, but its productivity is often affected by environmental variability. This research aimed to evaluate genotype × environment interactions, adaptability, and stability of four bush-type common bean genotypes and two check varieties in two agroecological zones, specifically high-altitude area and medium-altitude area. This research was arranged in a randomized block design with four replications per location. Nine parameters were observed, including plant height, number of leaves, days to flowering, days to harvest, number of pods per plant, pod length, pod diameter, pod weight per plant, and yield. A combined analysis of variance revealed significant effects of genotype, environment, and G × E interactions on most traits. Stability analysis was performed using parametric and nonparametric methods. GGE biplot analysis was applied to visualize genotype performance and stability simultaneously. The results indicate that genotypes AB (14.07 t ha-1) and AK (14.19 t ha-1) have the highest yields and broad adaptability, owing to their low contributions to G × E interactions, making them relatively stable at both medium and high altitudes. Genotype BK (12.82 t ha-1) has high yields only in the high altitudes, indicating specific adaptability to high altitude conditions. These findings highlight AB and AK as promising candidates for broad adaptability in high and medium altitude areas, and BK for targeted application in highland production areas.
