  • a,b,c,dDifferent letters (a–d) indicate significant differences in total spikes or in each type of spike by Tukey–Kramer test (p < 0.05).

  • Each value represents the mean ± SE in number of spikes (n = 11 for 1.0 × citrus extract, n = 20 for 0.1 × citrus extract, n = 15 for 0.01 × citrus extract, and n = 19 for 0.001 × citrus extract).
