Extended Data Fig. 2: Genetic variation in norms of reaction to drought stress.

Extended Data Fig. 2

BCMA1/3 alleles in the CFR-NIL background confer contrasting response to drought by altering morphological traits such as leaf size and number as well as physiological traits such as growth. Both genotypes reduce leaf water content under drought, but genetic differences in this response were only marginally significant. In each panel, points represent least-squares means estimates of the response variable for each genotype in each BCMA1/3 frequency treatment, and error bars represent ± one standard error.
