Median ± median deviation of the final number of xylem cells (Ncell), mean ± s.d. of the inflection point (tp) and the average production rate (rm) during 2009–2011
| 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | F | P | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ncell (number of cells) | 18·7 ± 3·1a | 18·8 ± 3·5a | 10·3 ± 1·6b | 14·527 | 0·001 |
| tp (DOY) | 177 ± 1b | 188 ± 1a | 178 ± 1b | 205·79 | <0·001 |
| rm (cells per day) | 0·23 ± 0·03b | 0·29 ± 0·02a | 0·10 ± 0·01c | 101·07 | <0·001 |
Results from ANOVA are reported as F-values and probability (P).
Values bearing the same letters within rows are not statistically different at 0·05 probability (Tukey test).
