Dataset for: Early-maturing elite virus-resistant selections dispatched for assessment of adaptation in subtropical lowland and temperate agro-ecologies

Multi-environment trials were conducted in 4 locations and different seasons of Peru, providing 6 contrasting environments with a high pressure of abiotic stress. The evaluation and selection in desert conditions and under contrasting day lengths of 12 and 16 hours photoperiod enabled assessment of day length sensitivity toward the identification of short-cycle, stable and stress tolerant virus (PVY) resistant candidate varieties for assessment of adaptation in subtropical lowland and temperate agroecologies such as South East Asia countries (India, Bangladesh), and Central Asia (Uzbekistan).
