Table 1. O2 concentration in water before and after different treatments.
The O2 content in water(nmol ml−1) | Day lily | Maize |
Before treatment | 245.0±0.58a | 245.0±0.5a |
After 36 h of DST | 49.1±0.71b | 38.5±1.29b |
After 36 h of DST+Air | 243.0±0.15a | 225.7±1.00a |
Changes in the O2 concentration of the water before and after pumping air in during dark-submergence treatment (DST). Means ± SE of three replicates are presented. Different letters indicate significant differences between treatments, P<0.05. Differences were analyzed by least significant difference (LSD).
