The 3D Biplot tab contains the following elements:

One 3D biplot.

The 3D biplot shows all three of the first 3 principal components from the linear-bilinear model in a single, 3-dimensional plot, with blue triangles for genotypes and red circles for environment.

In general, a genotype "close to" an environment, shows specific adaptation to that environment. Genotype points that are close to the origin show a broader adaptation to the environments.
