Hierarchical clustering and principal component analysis (PCA) to understand variable associations in treated tomato plants. CBEs were associated with five major clusters. (a) The entire data were analysed using PCA. The variables included root DW (root dry weight), shoot DW (shoot dry weight), Root length, Shoot length, Chl a (chlorophyll a), Chl b (chlorophyll b), Carotenoids (Carotenoids), Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium. The lines originating from central point of PCA plot indicate positive or negative correlations of different variables (b); where their closeness indicates correlation strength with particular treatment S3.
