Precise and consistent genotype identification for essential oil yield and ursolic acid in a multi-year assessment of basil

In the current study, sixteen basil genotypes in India were analyzed over three years using the AMMI stability model. The study years explained the bulk of the variation in all nine variables. The vast amount of data required for this inquiry hinders plant breeding processes. For basil's two most critical features, ursolic acid and essential oil yield, we found that genotypes 6, 11, and 12 were the best and most consistent options for practically every analyzed property. Furthermore, there were substantial + ve and -ve correlations among the major characteristics that drove stable line selection. Trait associations and stability-related factors both influence stable genotype selection in basil. Based on the results, genotypes 6, 11, and 12 may be recommended for large-area cultivation.
