Fig. 3From: Seedlings of two Acacia species from contrasting habitats show different photoprotective and antioxidative responses to drought and heatwavesMinimum (dashed line) and maximum soil water contents (solid line, SWC) expressed as percentage of FC in pots of two Acacia species (A. aneura and A. melanoxylon) under well-watered (open circle) and drought-stressed (closed circle) treatments. Vertical line and shaded areas described as in Fig. 1. Values are means (±SE) of n = 5. min. SWC: Effects of sampling day and treatment as well as their interaction (species by treatment, treatment by day) were statistically significant (p < 0.01). max. SWC: Effects of sampling day, species and treatment as well as interactions (treatment by day) were statistically significant (p < 0.001)Back to article page
