Sorghum is a prominent cereal crop, particularly in the world's semi-arid tropics. It is grown in over 105 countries across Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas on 40 million hectares. Sorghum is an important indigenous food crop, second only to teff in terms of production of injera (leavened native flat bread). The majority of sorghum varieties are recommended for various agro ecological zones (AEZs), and no single variety is appropriate for all of Ethiopia's circumstances (GxE). GxE affects grain yield, nutritional quality and content, as well as physicochemical and malting quality. The interaction of an organism's genetic composition with its environment results in phenotype, which is a physical trait. The presence of GEI complicates the selection of yield and yield-related traits. GEI can inhibit progress in the selection process and is a key driver of genotype-to-genotype yield stability differences. Plant breeders should investigate GEI in order to better understand crop development in relation to biophysical conditions. In different agro-ecologies, locales, and seasons, genotypes will respond differently. Agronomic/dynamic stability refers to a genotype's ability to adapt to changes in the environment. Breeders should encourage the development of varieties/hybrids that can adapt to a wide range of environments. Crossover and non-crossover gene x environment interactions (GEI) are the two forms of GEI. When there is a disparity in genotypic performance between individuals. Statistical analysis of yield studies can help agronomists, breeders, and other agricultural specialists make faster progress. G x E Interaction and Stability Analysis permits genotypes' relative performance and stability for yield and yield-related variables to be assessed. Therefore the objective of this review study is to assess the role of G x E on yield stability of sorghum.
