Data are presented as the mean ± SD (standard deviation); n = 3 repetitions. Tukey test (Statsoft STATISTICA) was used to reveal the differences between paired groups of elements in row. The same letters mean statistically significant differences between species (a = differences between Ga and Ls, b = differences between Ga and Tv, c = differences between Ls and Tv) for p values at least < 0.01; ns = not statistically significant
