Figure 3

Effect of water stress (A), nutrient availability (B) and pure (C) and mixed (D, E) density on dry mass of roots, stems, leaves and reproductive organs of Ceratocarpus arenarius plants derived from each dispersal unit morph (mean ± 1 s.e.). Only masses ≥ 0.16 g and standard errors ≥ 0.09 g are shown. Different uppercase letters indicate significant differences in total plant mass and different lowercase letters significant differences in mass of roots, stems, leaves and reproductive organs among levels for all treatments of plants from the same dispersal unit morph (P < 0.05). DUa, dispersal unit morph a; DUc, dispersal unit morph c; DUf, dispersal unit morph f; H, high; M, moderate; L, low.
