Table 1.
Standard least squares analysis of physiological traits with Genotype as a random effect (REML method) during water stress phase.
Fig 1.
Box plot of stem dry weight (g) for each genotype in both the water stress and control treatments after re-watering recovery (right panel).
The solid box contains the inner two quartiles, whereas whisker lines indicate 1.5 x IQR (3rd quartile minus the 1st quartile) from the box. The white horizontal line is the mean.
Fig 2.
Box plot of root mass fraction for each genotype in both the water stress and control treatments.
The solid box contains the inner two quartiles, whereas whisker lines indicate 1.5 x IQR (3rd quartile minus the 1st quartile) from the box. The white horizontal line is the mean.

ANOVA of physiological traits of plants under water stress in response to Genotype during the water stress phase.
Fig 3.
Box plot of Specific leaf area (cm2/g) for each genotype in both the water stress and control treatments immediately following 2 weeks of drought (left panel) and following 1 week of re-watering recovery (right panel).
The solid box contains the inner two quartiles, whereas whisker lines indicate 1.5 x IQR (3rd quartile minus the 1st quartile) from the box. The white horizontal line is the mean.
Fig 4.
Box plot of leaf water potential (MPa) for each genotype in both the water stress and control treatments after re-watering recovery (right panel).
The solid box contains the inner two quartiles, whereas whisker lines indicate 1.5 x IQR (3rd quartile minus the 1st quartile) from the box. The white horizontal line is the mean.
Fig 5.
Principal component analysis of the water stressed samples prior to recovery watering.
Loading arrows indicate the magnitude and direction of trait variation (9 traits) underlying the sample distribution. Ellipses indicate groupings by genotype.
