Table 1. Average results of the different estimated dimensions of the lateral lobes of the tegumen of specimens from 4 species of Diatraea.
Statistical comparisons were carried out independently for each dimension. Treatments with the different letters are significantly different according to LSD (95%). SD (Standard deviation); CV (coefficient of variation).
