Pear millet can be developed become one alternative source of carbohydrate in Indonesia, because its drought tolerant properties. The experiment was conducted to examine the interrelationship stability among various characters of two pear millet genotypes grown in different locations. It was discovered that interrelationship among characters of the genotypes was stable across locations. Grain weight per panicle, panicle weight, and plant weight were the characters that showed the highest correlation to grain yield. Grain weight per panicle was found to be the character that could be used as indirect selection indicator for high grain yield properties as it had the highest correlation value with a direct effect on the grain yield in addition to its showing high stability across the environments.
