Boxplots of ten phenotypic variables within diverse set. Days to 50% flowering, Plant height (cm), Panicle length (cm), Flag leaf area (cm²), Number of effective panicles, Biomass dry weight at maturity (kg ha⁻¹), Grain yield (kg ha^-1), 1000 grain weight (g), Harvest index and Spikelet fertility (percentage ratio by weight) for each of the six experiments (lowland non stress-LL_N, lowland stress-LL_S and upland stress-UL_S) in the two seasons- wet season-WS and dry season-DS. The boxplots are divided into population and subpopulation levels for each trait-whole population level (with all 280 indica-aus accessions): 245 accessions representing the four major genetic subgroups of indica genetic background and 35 accessions of aus genetic background. Within the boxplots, bold line represents the median, box edges represent upper and lower quantiles, and whiskers are 1.5 times the quantile of the data. Open dots represent the outliers
