---|---|---|---|---|
Parameter | [CO2] (μL L-1) | 25°C | 30–35°C | 36–40°C |
Total phenol (mg GAE g-1 DW) | 380 | 44.1 ± 1.8 aA | 37.9 ± 1.0 bB | 45.5 ± 2.8 aA |
700 | 35.8 ± 1.1 cB | 49.4 ± 2.1 aA | 42.0 ± 0.8 bA | |
Titratable acidity (mL NaOH 0.1 N g-1 DW) | 380 | 1.95 ± 0.07 aA | 2.00 ± 0.11 aA | 2.09 ± 0.17 aB |
700 | 2.09 ± 0.10 bA | 2.29 ± 0.08 abA | 2.62 ± 0.07 aA | |
Total soluble solids (% DW) | 380 | 34.5 ± 0.9 bA | 38.4 ± 1.3 aA | 37.6 ± 1.2 abA |
700 | 33.0 ± 1.2 aA | 35.4 ± 0.5 aA | 33.5 ± 0.8 aB |
For each parameter, the mean values ± SE (n = 5, performing two replicates of five plants) followed by different statistical indexes express significant differences between temperatures for the same CO2 treatment (a, b), or between CO2 treatments within each temperature (A, B). Two-way ANOVA depicted significant changes for temperature, [CO2], and their interaction for total phenol and acidity. For total soluble solids, significance was observed for temperature and [CO2], but not for the interaction.
