Small letters (a, b, c, d, e) are used to designate homogenous groups in a specific period for all the strains (analyzed in rows). Capital letters (A, B, C, D, E) are used to designate homogenous groups for individual strains in the experimental periods analyzed (analyzed in columns)
The same letters (among a, b, c, d, e, A, B, C, D, E) were used to designate those means that form homogenous groups. This means that if two means are given the same letter (e.g. a, A), then the means do not differ from each other significantly (significance level α = 0.05). However, if a pair of means is given different letters (e.g. a and b; A and B), then the means differ significantly from each other (for the same significance level α = 0.05)
