Here, GP = seed germination percentage, RL = root length, SL = shoot length, RFW = root fresh weight, RDW = root dry weight, SFW = shoot fresh weight, SDW = shoot dry weight, R/S = root:shoot ratio, Chl = chlorophyll index. The means sharing same letters within a same column are statistically non-significant (p > 0.05).
