Figure 5

Regional association plot of 1 Mb window on chromosome 5 showing SNPs significantly associated for grain yield under water stress across all locations and models. The genomic region included three neighbouring SNPs (PZE-105073248, PZE-105073274, and PZE-105073275) that were strongly associated with grain yield. PZE-105073274 and PZE-105073275 (78.05 Mb; 253-bp apart) in high linkage disequilibrium (r2 = 1) showed FDR-corrected associations specific to locations and models. All three SNPs were observed close to MYB and SBP: 84 kb, 130.8 kb, and 131.1 kb from MYB and 65 kb, 111.6 kb, and 111.8 kb from SBP for PZE-105073248, PZE-105073274, and PZE-105073275 respectively.
