Multi-location trialsin breeding program of any crop are important to find the genotype × environment interaction and selection of supreme genotypes across different environments. Present study was conducted to determine the stability and adaptability of 12onion genotypes in six distinct environments. The experiments were laid out in triplicate randomized complete block design at six locations in 2018-19 viz., Faisalabad-1, Bahawalpur-1, Multan, Faisalabad- 2, Bahawalpur-2 and Raiwind. The combined analysis of variance revealed significant differences among the genotypes, environments, and genotype × environment interaction. The scores of principal component 1 (PC1) and principal component 2 (PC2) cumulatively explained 97.13 % of the total variation due to genotype and genotype × environment interaction which were used to draw GGE biplot. Genotypes with score near to zero on both PCs considered as stable one while genotypes with large scores are catagorized as less stable. Phulkara and VRIO-1 were best genotypes in terms of high average yield and stability across multi-location testing. Dark red was the ideal genotype followed by VRIO-1 and Phulkara. The polygon view of GGE biplot exhibits that genotypes: Dark red, Desi red, Early red, Husri and VRIO-2 are highly diverse. Due to more representativeness Bahawalpur-2 was identified as best location among the tested environments for general cultivation of these genotypes. One mega-environment was identified comprised of all tested locations for onion cultivation and all the tested locations are significantly correlated with each other. Thus, GGE biplot technique with graphical display gives an overview of mean performance and stability which is useful for identifying locations with good genotype performance and for efficient use of available resources for the testing program
