The seedlings were incubated in oosporein solution at each concentration for 10 days. FW: fresh weight. DW: dry weight. Different letters (a–c) indicate a statistically significant difference among treatments in ANOVA comparisons and post hoc Tukey HSD at p < 0.05 (n = 15). Mean values are shown with ± SE.
