Comparison of well-watered, drought-stressed, and water-recovered Pandanus amaryllifolius plants. (A) Pandanus plants were subjected to drought stress by withholding water for 7 days, whereas the water-recovered plants were rewatered after a 7-day drought treatment and rewatered for 7 days. Well-watered P. amaryllifolius served as control. The line bar indicates the scale of the plant = 10 cm. (B) The percentage of leaf relative water content of P. amaryllifolius leaves. (C) The percentage of relative electrolyte leakage for each sample. (D) Shoot mass of P. amaryllifolius. (E) Root mass of P. amaryllifolius. (F) Root-to-shoot mass ratio of P. amaryllifolius. Means labeled with alphabet were significantly different based on the ANOVA followed by post hoc when its p-value < 0.05.
