Notes.

RW, root dry weight; SW, stem dry weight; LW, leaf dry weight; and DQI = Dickson Quality Index. Data represent means ± SD of two plants by replicate (five replicate determinations). Each value in columns followed by different letters indicates significant (P <0.05) difference by ANOVA and the Scott Knott test.
