Genotype by environment interactions gx e and climate change
1. Genotype by environment
interactions (GxE)
and climate change
Jacob van Etten
Alberto Labarga
2. GxE
P = G + E + G*E
P = Production
G = Genotype
E = Environment
3. In other words...
Suppose we have
a continuous environmental variable
two different genotypes i = {1,2}
Now the regression equation becomes:
P = (β0 +) β1Gi + β2E + β3GiE (+ e)

13. What breeders usually do: AMMI
Additive Main Effects and Multiplicative Interaction
Production = G + E + residuals
Then do a PCA on residuals to visualize the GxE
interactions.
(An alternative is to only remove G – known as GGE.)
17. Final remarks
Statistical models complement mechanistic
models
Use real data for places where mechanistic models
have not been calibrated
