Mean values of leaf parameters according to the climatic zone.

Climatic zone		LF (cm)	LW (cm)	LPe (cm)
Sudanian (OK, FM)	Mean ± SD	28.12 ± 6.36a	11.58 ± 2.63a	4.95 ± 1.03a
Transition (AB)	Mean ± SD	27.45 ± 4.12a	12.18 ± 2.18a	4.00 ± 0.71b
Guinean (PA, TO)	Mean ± SD	28.89 ± 5.51a	14.63 ± 3.3b	4.57 ± 0.91b
value		0.521	2.816×10^−7	6.906×10^−5

LF: length of the leaf; LW: width of the leaf; LPe: length of the petiole of the leaf; SD: standard deviation; test of Tukey: the values followed by the same letter on one column are not significantly different at the threshold of alpha = 0.05. Codes of significance: , , and .
