Shoot and root relative growth rate (RGR; A) of 15 accessions of Melilotus siculus recovering from 7 d of full submergence of shoots (roots in stagnant nutrient solution) for the first 7 d after desubmergence. Plants were 35 d old when desubmerged and the 7 d recovery period commenced. Values are means ± s.e. of four replicates. The significance of the ‘accession’ effect on the shoot and root RGR from the one-way ANOVAs is shown. Different letters indicate significant differences (P < 0.05) in RGR among accessions based on Tukey test. Upper case letters allow comparison of means for shoot RGR among accessions; lower case letters allow comparison of means for root RGR among accessions. In (B) representative pictures of selected accessions with high (SA39909, SA40007), intermediate (SA36980, SA36983) and low (SA36981, SA40004) recovery ability are presented. Scale bars in (B) represent 1 cm.
