Figure 3

Trace elements concentration in brinjal fruits collected from different farmers′ fields of Islampur and Melandaha Upazila of Jamalpur district, Bangladesh. Lower and upper box boundaries are 25th and 75th percentiles, respectively, whereas the colored (blue or red) horizontal line inside the box is median and the black line represents the mean value. The lower and upper error lines are 10th and 90th percentiles, respectively. Data points falling outside 10th and 90th percentiles are the outliers. The p-values are mean comparison (nonparametric Kruskal–Wallis test) of brinjal metal concentrations sampled from two study locations. Single and double asterisks associated with the p-values designate the means are different at 5% and 1% level of probability, respectively.
