Genetic and environmental factors and their interactions had effects on yield of crops, therefor this research was conducted to determine the genotype by environment interaction (GEI) effects on kernel sweetness and husked ear yield of 5 sweet corn cultivars grown in 4 environments using AMMI (additive main effects and multiplicative interaction) analysis. Five sweet corn hybrid cultivars were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications for 2 seasons. Each season was composed of 2 environments: chemical and organic fertilizations. Analysis of variance showed significant effects attributable to the cultivars (G), environment (E) and their interaction (GEI) for both characters. AMMI analysis revealed that the first two multiplicative components of the interaction (IPCA1 and IPCA2) accounted for 92.1 and 99.8% of the variation of GEI for kernel sweetness and husked ear yield, respectively. The scores of the principal interaction components showed high variability for the environments relative to the cultivar effects. Wanburi (G5) was the most stable cultivar for kernel sweetness because of its lowest AMMI stability value (ASV) and high kernel sweetness. Whereas Hybrix3 (G2) was the most stable for husked ear yield because of its lowest ASV and high husked ear yield.
