Description: Geographical distribution of common gardens (n = 10) and plant collection locations (n = 700 georeferenced genotypes), and spatial distribution models of each ecotype. The ecotype colour legend accompanies the representative images of each ecotype to the right of the map (images were taken at the end of the 2019 growing season and the background was removed with ImageJ (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij)). White-outlined points (coloured by ecotype, or in white if no ecotype assignment was made) indicate the georeferenced collection sites of the diversity panel. The labelled white circles with black crosses indicate the locations of the 10 experimental gardens. Publicly available cultural and physical geographical information system (GIS) layers were accessed with the rnaturalearthdata R package51. Scale bars, 1 m.
