Sixteen pearl millet genotypes were evaluated under irrigation with three levels of marginal quality (saline) water. Stability parameters were computed for fresh and dry matter yield, plant height and leafiness. Pooled analysis of variance revealed significant mean differences among genotypes and environments. Environment (Linear) was highly significant for all the traits. It showed that the environments were considerably different and played a significant role in the expression of these traits. The G x E (Linear) and pooled deviation were non-significant for all the traits. The magnitude of stability parameters bi and Sdi were non-significant but variable among genotypes. Therefore, stability of the genotypes was predicted on mean yield and comparative value of stability parameters. The genotypes IP6106(B2), IP13150, HHVBC Tall(B2), ICMV 7704(B1), MC94C2(B2), ERaj pop, and ICMV155Brist(B10) had the above average yield of green and dry matter and leafiness but bi values greater than 1 showing their performance was better under low and medium salinity levels. IP6106(B2) was the most stable genotype with highest fresh and dry matter yield with bi values close to unity and small Sdi. IP19586 and Dauro gene pool(B2) had below average dry matter yields and bi value significantly less than unity, showing that yield was reduced due to high salinity. The present model was not fit for IP6109, Nutrifeed and ICMV155Brist (B10) to explain variation for leafiness as the R values for these genotypes were very low for this trait.
