Table 2. Results of one-way ANOVA testing differences between control and all treatments in maximum electron transport rate (ETRmax, μmol em–2 s–1), initial slope of the RLC (α) and saturation irradiance (Ek, μmolphotons m–2 s–1), productivity (P, gCO2 gDW–1), and P/R ratios for the whole plant (P/Rplant), photosynthetic tissue (P/Rps), and non-photosynthetic tissue (P/Rnps).

Post hoc analyses are performed using the Student–Newman–Keuls method. Significant values (p < 0.05) are shown in bold.
