T0, T1 and T2 represent the 100%, 75% and 50% ETc, respectively. Values are means of seven replicates. Means followed by different letters in the same column are significantly different (p<0.05, Duncan’s multiple range tests). Values with different letters (a, b, c, and d) are significanlty different at p<0.05. ** mean highly significant (at p<0.01). *** mean very highly significant (at p<0.001).
