Table 1

Changes in the RWC, in fronds of Elaphoglossum luridum under different treatments: control, water deficit (seven days), and ABA-treated fronds (fifteen days) (10 M). The data are presented as mean ± SD. Lowercase letters indicate the treatments differentiated by ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test; ().

Treatment	RWC (%)
Control	89.37 ± 0.60^ab
Water deficit	87.22 ± 1.36^b
ABA	90.50 ± 0.56^a
