Table 2. The effects of excision treatments on seedling emergence.
Statistically analyzed results (mean ± SE) of median germination rate for seedling emergence (ER50%) and the value of standard deviation of the emergence rate (SD), using a one-way ANOVA approach. a Row values not followed by the same letter are significantly different (p < 0.05) according to Duncan’s test.
