Figure Lengend Snippet: Boxplots comparing group performance of groups corresponding to selection strategies under water deficit. Traits were measured as best linear unbiased predictors (BLUPs) and include (A) plant turgor ratings, (B) canopy temperature, (C) stomatal conductance (g sw ), and (D) vapor pressure deficit (VPD). Selection strategy groups were based on GEBVs (GS, N = 8), LA1141 × OH8245 BC 2 S 3 canopy temperature, and turgor BLUPs (Pheno, N = 9), a combination of the two (GS + Pheno, N = 3), and randomly advanced lines (Random, N = 10). Each IBL was replicated three times within the selection strategy. Turgor ratings ranged from 1 to 5 (5 = turgid, 4 = soft to the touch, 3 = beginning to wilt, 2 = wilted with complete loss of turgor, and 1 = dead) as described previously . Canopy temperature was estimated using the FLIRONE GEN3 iOS thermal camera (FLIR Systems Wilsonville, OR, United States). Physiological measurements were measured with the LI-600 Porometer/Fluorometer (LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, United States) and included stomatal conductance (g sw mol m –2 s –1 ) and vapor pressure deficit (VPD kPa). Values are reported at the time point where they reach their maximums. Different letters indicate statistically significant differences among groups (Tukey’s honestly significant difference, p < 0.05).
