---|---|---|
Solid medium | Liquid medium | |
DKW | 2.20 ± 0.50a | 3.14 ± 0.40a |
G | 2.00 ± 0.45a | 3.25 ± 0.31a |
MS | 1.60 ± 0.40a | 3.00 ± 0.44a |
MS/2 | 2.37 ± 0.89a | 3.57 ± 1.05a |
W | 1.00 ± 0.00b | 1.43 ± 0.30b |
a,bValues are means ± SE. Means followed by the same letter were not significantly different according to Tukey's HSD test (P < 0.05).
