The bars represent the standard error of the mean. Within each background, different letters represent significantly different means (Tukey HSD test, alpha = 0.05, based on a 4-replicate RCBD, trialed three seasons [N = 12]). The response value of each experimental unit comes from: the average fruit weight from four or five harvests each season [yield/total fruit per plot] (weight), or average values of 24 fruits per experimental unit from second to fourth harvest (fruit shape attributes)
