Table 4. The datasets used to determine TPE Classes and yield stability in the TPE.

YP and YA are the irrigated and rainfed rice grain yields in the best rainfed season. The λ is the coefficient of variation of rainfed yield in YA, φ is the spatial variability of yields among environments, and the ψ is the temporal variability of yield among different growth seasons.
