Figure 1 Correlation of plant height and seeds weight (thousand seeds weight).
A total of 12,828 samples have been genotyped at > 90% of filtered SNP loci. There are two growth type, spring-type barley (relaxed vernalisation requirement for flowering) and winter-type barley (vernalisation required for flowering). Winter-type barley is taller than spring-type barley by an average of 8.8 cm, while seeds weight of winter-type barley is bigger than that of spring-type barley by a marginal 1.65 g (Figure 1; Table S1). For both winter barley and spring barley, plant height is correlated with seeds weight with r = 0.268 and p = 0.0001 for spring barley, and r = 0.335 andp = 0.0001 for winter barley, and the regression slopes do not differ (p = 0.680).
