Abiotic stress can enhance the heterogeneity of fields, which leads to imprecise estimates of genotypic effects in variety trials. Our study is based on multilocation field trials of triticale (×TriticosecaleWittm.). Two of the six locations were affected by drought stress and showed increased field heterogeneity. At Willstätt, drought stress intensity was visually scored twice, and at Issoudun, overall impression of a plot was scored once. We investigated if the visual scorings can be used as covariates in an analysis of covariance (ancova) to eliminate the influence of different drought stress intensity on plot yields. For evaluation of theancovamodels, we examined if the covariates were independent from the genotypic effects and linearly associated with grain yield. In addition,ancovamodels were compared with baseline and spatial models based on AIC and phenotypic correlation between genotype means estimated with the model under investigation in a drought stress location with genotype means calculated across the remaining locations. We found that both scorings in Willstätt fulfilled the requirements of anancovaand led to an increase in broad‐sense heritability (h2) and efficiency.ancovawith the second scoring increasedh2from 0.03 for the baseline model to 0.60, whereas the best spatial model increasedh2only up to 0.50. The scoring at Issoudun was not independent from the genotypic effects and reduced phenotypic correlations. We concluded that environmental factors causing spatially differing yield potential can be scored or measured and used as covariates to obtain more precise genotypic estimates.
