Abstract: The yield and stability are key factors for breeding of Camellia oleifera. Using the combined variance analysis and G×E interaction analysis and AMMI model, the interaction between the clonal genotype and environment effect was evaluated, the production stability of the clones was also investigated by biplot visual analysis based on yield data of 12 clones of Camellia oleifera in 4 testing farms. The results showed that the differences of yield in different clones and test farms were extremely significant. The interaction between the clones and environment was also significant. The number of higher yield trees with more than 8 kg product per plant was only 27.86% of the total number of trees. However, these higher yield tress contributed 58.4% of total yield. In another word, less than 1/3 trees contributed nearly 2/3 yield in test farms. The similar result was observed in Camellia oleifera forest originated from seeds. The result suggested that the productivity of clone 40, 4, 53 are strongly stable with high yield. Whereas the clones 166, 20, 21 are medium yield and stable; The clone 180 is high stable with the lowest yield. Clone 3 is high yield with the lowest stability.
