Abstract: Different diverse maize genotypes were evaluated in different stages of multilocation trials namely
.IYT. · CVT and CFFT -in the hill environments of Nepal. The objective was identified superior maize
genotypes for the use of farmers or for tlie use of breeder to developed the variety it self or to use in
breeding use work. This paper summarized the result ofmultilocation testing during 2000 and 2001.
Dur:ing 2000, 16 maize genotypes were tested in IYT at 4 locations. Based ·on the across location
· analysis, genotypes were significant but _accept 4 low yielding genotyp·e, rest of 12 genotypes were
statis~ically similar for grain yield. During 2001 twenty-one genotypes were tested in 1YT at five
· locatioiJS. Genotypes were found·non-significant for grain yield and plant height. Similarly, sixteen

produced the highest grain yield ( .35 tlha), followed by LATAC1F1/LATBC1F1, Hill Pool yellow

2001, fifteen genotypes were evaluated at six hill locations. The genotypes were found highly
