In this paper we have discussed the problem of decomposition of a response variable into other predictor variables whose product gives the value of the response variable. This methodology is known as multiplicative yield component analysis. We have discussed the applications of multiplicative yield component analysis in cereal science and breeding. The discussion of multiplicative yield component analysis involves the description of yield component analysis for cereal grain yield, single genotype yield component analysis and across-genotype yield component analysis.

Keywords: yield component analysis; single-genotype yield component analysis; across-genotype yield component analysis
