DIZ values are expressed in mm.

*Same superscript letter (a,b,c) indicates no significant difference (p > 0.05) between DIZ values from different strains for each solvent (same column).

**Same superscript number (1,2) indicates no significant difference (p > 0.05) between DIZ values from different solvents against each strain (same row).
