Graphical representation of the level of connectivity between entries and target population of environments (TPE) coverage associated with each type of data and stage of evaluation. A: Connectivity levels of historical studies and era studies driven by control strategy. For connectivity between years, the intensity of the green color reflects the number of common controls between trials, the higher the intensity, the greater the connectivity. For TPE coverage, the gray boxes represent the proportion of environments (year and/or location) covered by the trials conducted in each type of study. B: Genetic material used in each stage of evaluation for historical studies and era studies, with their level of connectivity and TPE coverage
