Contents of chlorophyll, carotenoids and magnesium in the control and soil dust treatments.

Parameter	Control	Soil dust
Chl a (mg/m²)	22.65 ± 2.49^b	16.69 ± 1.10^a
Chl b (mg/m²)	6.27 ± 0.85^a	5.44 ± 1.08^a
Chl_t (mg/m²)	28.92 ± 3.31^b	22.13 ± 2.09^a
Car (mg/m²)	6.07 ± 0.96^a	4.88 ± 0.79^a
Mg (g/kg DW)	4.37 ± 0.32^b	4.00 ± 0.24^a

Chl a: chlorophyll a, Chl b: chlorophyll b, Chl_t: total chlorophyll, Car: carotenoids. Values are means ± SD. Lower-case letters indicate significant differences based on Fisher’s LSD test (p ≤ 0.05). Data with the same letter are not significantly different.
