The use of spectral indices such as normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) is becoming an important element in the evaluation of physiological traits in cereal crops. Determining the correlation between spectral readings taken at different phenological stages of wheat plants and grain yield (GY) is crucial. This study aimed to demonstrate the effectiveness of NDVI in combination with the GGE biplot model in identifying high yielding durum wheat genotypes. Field experiments were conducted in multiple environments and growth stages to evaluate the relationship between NDVI and grain yield (GY). Twenty-five durum wheat genotypes were tested for two years under rainfed and supplementary irrigation conditions using a split plot experimental design. The results showed significant positive correlations between NDVI and GY, especially at the generative stages under rain-fed conditions. In contrast, NDVI at the grain-filling stage showed a weaker relationship with GY under supplemental irrigation. Genotypes exhibiting high NDVI values up to the stem elongation stage tended to have lower grain yields, emphasizing the importance of considering growth stage dynamics. GGE biplot analysis provided visual information on genotype-trait relationships, helping to identify genotypes with consistent performance in different environments. This study highlights that NDVI can be used to predict yield potential and guide selection in durum wheat breeding programs and the GGE biplot model serves as a valuable tool for genotype evaluation and selection.
