FW – fresh weight; DW – dry weight; ns - not significant; means in the same column with the same small letter do not differ significantly (p ≤ 0.05), as judged by the Tukey test; means in the same line with the same capital letter do not differ significantly (p ≤ 0.05), as judged by the Tukey test.
