FIGURE 15.1 Effect of treatment with retardants (SADH, PB) and auxins (IAA)
on calcium content in fruits, seeds, and leaves of Double Red McIntosh apples.
Figure concerning on experiments 1, 2, 3 signed with the same letter don’t
differ signifi cantly at P = 0.05 t Duncan’s test; n.s. means no signifi cant
difference between treatments.
