Natural variability of length of Cress seedlings (n = 154) grown in purified water. Mean value, standard deviation (SD), and coefficient of variation (CV) were calculated for each parameter (shoot length, root length, total length, and root-to-shoot ratio).
| Parameter | n | Measurements | Mean | SD | CV |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shoot length [cm] | 154 | 1 | 3.90 | 0.43 | 11.01% |
| Root length [cm] | 154 | 1 | 6.10 | 1.52 | 24.95% |
| Total length [cm] | 154 | 1 | 10.00 | 1.81 | 18.05% |
| Root/shoot ratio | 154 | 1 | 1.55 | 0.36 | 22.91% |
