Each value represents the mean of five replicates at eight sampling dates in 2010/2011 and five replicates at 10 sampling dates in 2011/2012. Means in columns followed by a different letter are significantly different within one season. Monomers: C, (+)-catechin; EC, (−)-epicatechin; ECG, (−)-epicatechin-3-O-gallate. Dimers: B1, Ec-(4β-8-)Cat; B2, Ec-(4β-8-Ec. Treatments: STD (shaded/control); LRW (leaf removal west); STD with decreased UV-B radiation (STD-UV-B); LRW with decreased UV-B radiation (LRW-UV-B); LR (-UV-B, -PAR) (leaf removal with decreased UV-B radiation and 2xOp50 UV sheets added on both sides of the bunch zone); LR (-UV-B, 2xUHI) (leaf removal with decreased UV-B radiation and 2xUHI UV sheets added on both sides of the bunch zone). Different letters indicate significant differences at p ≤ 0.05, 0.01, and 0.001, respectively; ns, not significant.
