Benefit of MegaLMM and geographic distributions of among-trial genetic correlations vary among traits. Traits analyzed included: days to silking (DTS), anthesis-silking interval (ASI), grain yield, and plant height. A Trial locations for each trait are shown. Points were jittered west-to-east to prevent overlap of repeated trials across years. Size and color of each point correspond to the increase in prediction accuracy for MegaLMM versus a univariate LMM. B Smoothed estimates (computed using geom_smooth with a bandwidth of 1.0) of the relationship between geographic distance and genetic correlation for each trial. Line colors correspond to the benefit of MegaLMM in each focal trial. C Genetic correlations between the trial with the greatest benefit of MegaLMM for each trait and each other trial
