Supplemental Figure 1: Selection of 7 environmental covariates
for the factorial regression model. Three periods – each of 20 days –
were defined from planting to the end of flowering on the
4th truss. The period from 20 to 60 days after
planting (DAP) covered vegetative growth and flowering on the
4th truss and the measured climatic variables averaged
during this period. The different environmental covariates are described
Supplemental Figure 2: Boxplot distribution of the traits
across environments. The colors of the boxplot are according to the
groups defined by clustering of the environments
Supplemental Figure 3: Heritability in the MAGIC-MET design.
For each trait, heritability was computed at every environment and
plotted with heritability of the full design \(\mathbf{H}^{\mathbf{2}}\)(in green)
Supplemental Figure 4: Proportion of the sum of square
attributed to the different factors in the factorial regression model.
For each trait, the orange and green stacked bars represent the
proportion of the SSq explained by the Genotype and Environment factors
in model (4). The remaining colors represent the effect part of the GxE
that could be explained by the different environmental covariates. Only
significant covariates were highlighted within the bars.
Supplemental Figure 5: Reaction norms from the Finlay-Wilkinson
regression model (A) and the factorial regression model (B). In figure 5
A, the blue and orange lines represent the positive and negative
reaction norms. In Figure 5 B, the green and purple lines represent the
positive and negative reaction norms
Supplemental Figure 6: Histogram distribution of mean and all
plasticity parameters for each trait
Supplemental Figure 7: Physical positions of the MAGIC-MET QTLs
for diam, leaf, height, fset, nflw, nfr, firm and SSC. The outer circle
with gray font represents the known and cloned QTL/gene for each trait.
The following circle with black bars represents the different
domestication/improvement sweep regions identified in (Zhu et al. 2018).
The other circles plot the CI of QTLs identified on mean (green),
plasticity (orange) or with QEI analysis (purple)
Supplemental Figure 8: Number of the MAGIC-MET QTLs identified
within or outside the domesticated/improved regions. Only the MAGIC-MET
QTLs within short CI (lower than 2Mbp) were considered. The response
specific category included QEI and plasticity specific QTLs; the common
category correspond to QTLs that were commonly identified on mean,
plasticity and QEI or at least two of them
Supplemental Figure 9: Zoom plot on Chromosome 11 region from
53 -57 Mbp. Each color represents a different QTL located in this region
and the top black bars are the Sweep regions SW254 and SW255
Supplemental Figure 10: Correlation between the genotypic
sensitivities to environmental covariates from the factorial regression
model and slopes from the Finlay-Wilkinson regression model
Supplemental Figure 11: Venn diagram of the number of QTL
specific or commonly detected with mean, PP or using the QEI models.

the 12 environments and their respective names

evaluated in the MAGIC-MET design

model (2)
Supplemental Table 4: Results of QTL and QEI analysis in the
MAGIC-MET design

overlapping with the Sweep (domestication/improvement) regions.

width and fruit length in the MAGIC population

and plasticity QTLs located within 2Mbp CI region
