DS: the diameter of the stalk; DBP: the diameter of the basal plate; NS: the number of stalks; FWU: the fresh weight underground; DWU: the dry weight underground; NR: the number of roots; PH: plant height; FWA: the fresh weight of the aboveground part; DWA: the dry weight of the aboveground part. Values with different capital letters in the last column indicate a significant difference ().
