Root/shoot-elongation-ratio (mean ± SE) of colchicine-treated Lepidium sativum, with either water, Viscum album extract (VAE) Mali or Pini [2 mg/mL], or anthroposophically processed Viscum album extract (APVAE) Mali or Pini [2 mg/mL] added. (a) Average over all colchicine concentrations used. Parameters with different letters (a, b, and c) are statistically different ( , LSD test); parameters with identical letters are statistically indistinguishable ( , LSD test). (b) The same data as in (a) but differentiated according to the colchicine concentration used (17, 18, or 20 μg/mL). Data from VAE Mali and VAE Pini as well as APVAE Mali and APVAE Pini were pooled. Parameters with different letters (a, b, c, …) are statistically different ( , LSD test); parameters with identical letters are statistically indistinguishable ( , LSD test).
