Table 2.

Effect of mistletoe infestation on oxidative stress parameters in linden leaves.

Treatment Electrolyte Leakage, % MDA, nmol g−1 DW H2O2, nmol g−1 DW
C 12.4 ± 0.7 c 93.6 ± 2.0 c 2.24 ± 0.03 a
NI 15.8 ± 0.6 c 99.4 ± 3.1 c 2.25 ± 0.03 a
LI 23.8 ± 1.3 b 137.8 ± 4.4 b 1.79 ± 0.05 b
HI 30.8 ± 1.4 a 183.8 ± 3.6 a 1.52 ± 0.6 c

MDA, malondialdehyde; DW, dry weight; C, control, non-infested trees; NI, leaves from non-infested branches of infested trees; LI, leaves from branches with 1–2 mistletoe bushes (low degree of infestation); HI, leaves from branches with 5–7 mistletoe bushes (high degree of infestation). Different letters in each column indicate significant differences between variants based on Tukey’s post hoc test (n = 5) at p ≤ 0.05.
