(a, b) Effect of different climate temperatures (C, 25°C; T1, 35°C; T2, 45°C; and T3, 55°C) and water stress (WS) treatments on the electric conductivity (dS/m), measured in soil:water (1 : 5) extracts after two sampling periods (S1, 14 days and S2, 21 days) in basil plants (mean ± SD, n = 5). Asterisks indicate significant differences between sampling periods of each treatment and differences between treatments for the same sampling periods according to the Tukey test (α = 0.05).
