Table 2. Effect of source of variance (F value and P significant level) on cotton leaves K, N, and total B, cell wall B (CellWB), and cell wall B contribution to the total B (CellWB %) in near-isogenic lines (Line) expressing fuzzy and fuzzless seed phenotypes under water stress (well-watered and water stressed plants; W) with and without foliar B application (B) in a repeated (Experiment 1 and Experiment 2; Exp) greenhouse experiment.
