^a Superscripts indicate ranking at that location.
^bSignificant (P <0.01 or 0.05) variety X location interaction for a trait indicates that means averaged over locations in above table may not indicate within location performance. Therefore, use means over locations to compare
varietal performance with caution. , * = significant at P <0.05 or 0.01, respectively.
Bolding indicates entries not significantly different from highest yielding entry based on Fisher's protected LSD (P = 0.10)
