†Site was a random factor with 2 levels and treatment was fixed with 2 levels (P, TP). The replicates were the kelps (n = 5). Cochran's test was used to test assumptions of homogeneity (2007, C = 0.53 ns; 2006, C = 0.46 ns). Non-significant interactions () were pooled when ns with P>0.25. SNK tests of means were done where there were interactions. **, P<0.01; ns, P>0.05.
