Values for Sin-11, Sac-5, and Gig-311 at Nu+/75 % SWC were set at 100 %.
Biomass measures for the various treatments for a given genotype are relative to those at Nu+/75 % SWC.
Relative percentages for the biomass measurements in this table are derived from absolute measurements (see Supplementary data Fig. S3) taken from the miscanthus genotypes at the end of the experimental treatments.
Percentage values in brackets are all relative to those of Gig-311 at Nu+/75 % SWC.
