Percentage is calculated as the ratio of the F-statistic of each PC divided by the sum of F-statistics for all PCs within each OSR group. PCs with small contributions to seed yield are observed. Each PC represents combinations of the measured traits, defining ideal reproductive strategies that plants adopt within the population. Supplementary File 2 contains the combination of traits for each PC.
