Summary: Growing Coffea arabica in regions of the Western Amazon is limited by early maturation and by its limited adaptation to regions of low altitude and high temperature. The aim in this study was to quantify the genotype × environment interaction of C. arabica lines in four different environments of the Western Amazon, seeking to assist selection of new lines with greater adaptability and stability for the region. In the months of December 2012 and January 2013, four competitive trials were set up in municipalities of the states of Rondônia and Acre. Adaptabilidade e estabilidade de linhagens de Coffea arábica na Amazônia Ocidental: O cultivo do Coffea arabica em regiões da Amazônia Ocidental é limitado pela precocidade de maturação e pela sua menor adaptação a regiões de baixas altitudes e altas temperaturas. O objetivo neste trabalho foi quantificar a interação genótipo x ambientes de linhagens de C. arabica em quatro diferentes ambientes da Amazônia Ocidental, buscando subsidiar a seleção de novas linhagens de maior adaptabilidade e estabilidade para a região.
