Table 2. Leaf color traits under control Group. (25 °C) The color was described by value of spectrophotometry and the number of the Royal Horticultural Society Color Chart.
| Cultivar | Stage | L* | a* | b* | RHSCC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| H | T0 | 26.24 ± 1.20c | 2.35 ± 0.60b | −1.70 ± 0.40c | BLACK 202A |
| F | T0 | 29.69 ± 1.44ab | 7.96 ± 2.28a | 5.56 ± 1.36ab | GREY-BROWN N199B |

Notes.
The parameter L* indicates the lightness of leaves, the number is bigger, the color is closer to white. The parameter a* indicates green and red, the number is bigger, the color is closer to red, otherwise it is closer to green. The parameter b* indicates yellow and blue, the number is bigger, the color is closer to yellow, otherwise it is closer to blue. Different letters indicate significant differences at p ≤ 0.05 based on Duncan’s new multiple range test.
