AUTHOR CONTRIBUTIONS
MCF and SRK designed the research. VC prepared the genomic data and performed the selection scans and simulations. MCF performed the GF modeling and associated analyses. SRK oversaw the genomic and simulation analyses, managed the VT common garden and analyzed the common garden data. RS managed the IH common garden, provided data, and edited the manuscript. MCF and SRK led the writing of the manuscript with contributions from VC.
Table 1. Model estimates (SE) relating common garden height increment growth to genetic offset predictions from Gradient Forests. Offset predictions were tested for different sets of outlier loci: (a) All outliers presented in Fig. 1; (b) GF-X outliers; (c) random sampling of SNPs from the genomic background; and (d) the climate-only Mahalanobis distance based between source and garden sites.
