Total ascorbic acid concentration (ASC + DHA) and ratio of reduced to total ascorbic acid (ASC%) in roots of two Acacia species (A. aneura and A. melanoxylon) under well-watered (open circle) and drought-stressed (closed circle) treatments. Vertical line, shaded areas, letters and asterisks described as in Fig. 1. Values are means (±SE) of n = 5. ASC + DHA: Effects of sampling day, species and treatment as well as their interactions (day by species, day by species by treatment, day by treatment) were statistically significant (p < 0.05). ASC%: Effects of sampling day and treatment as well as their interaction were statistically significant (p < 0.001)
