Fig. 6: Average genetic correlation among host adaptation traits and environmental stress traits.

From: Mapping the adaptive landscape of a major agricultural pathogen reveals evolutionary constraints across heterogeneous environments

Fig. 6

Bar plots represent shared adaptive loci inferred from average genetic correlation coefficients for A pathogen virulence (amount of necrotic lesion area), B reproduction (pycnidia density within the lesion area), C between virulence and reproduction on each of the 12 wheat hosts, D overall virulence and reproduction combined over 12 hosts and host specialization. Host specialization is represented as the coefficient of variation of means across 12 hosts. E–H Bar plots showing the relative degree of interaction between the genetic control of host and non-host traits on each of the 12 hosts. Only four hosts are shown and the eight remaining hosts are shown in Supplementary Fig. 1. Melanization was expressed on a grayscale ranging from 0 (white) to 255 (black). Error bars indicate standard errors.
