Yield performance, stability and adaptability of three peanut cultivars were estimated over various environments typical of growing conditions and foliar disease severity that occur in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Cultivars Tatu, Florunner and IAC-Caiapó were evaluated under three levels of disease control, in experiments where the prevailing diseases were the late leafspot (Cercosporidium personatum) and rust (Puccinia arachidis). Experiments used a splitplot design with four replications, in plots of four lines 5 m long. Main treatments consisted of chemical control of the diseases with two or four sprayings and a no-control treatment. Stability and adaptability over the environments were also estimated within each level of disease control. Cultivar Florunner showed the highest yields and responses to chemical control, as well as adaptability over environments where the diseases were well controlled. Responses of cultivars Tatu and IAC-Caiapó to disease control were similar, and both outyielded cultivar Florunner where disease pressure was higher. Cultivar IAC-Caiapó yielded higher than cultivar Tatu and showed yielding performance more stable (predictable) than the others in the three levels of disease control.
