Grouped data analysis of the two-way ANOVA reports-
p < 0.0001 (which is highly significant to the scale p < 0.05) for the bile salt tolerance test; a,b,c are all significant values (in scale p < 0.05)
p < 0.0002 between CG and Treatment Group Replication-1 (TGR-1)
p < 0.037 between the TGR-1and 2
p < 0.0014 between CG and TGR-2
t-test reports-
p < 0.0115 (significant to the scale p < 0.05) in the pH tolerance test data considering the two replications (R)
