  1. ZCK treatment of water, ZS treatment with NaCl, ZSA treatment with ABA + NaCl in Huanghuazhan. Data are mean ± standard error of at least four replicates. Within each column, different letters indicate significant difference at the five percent significant level according to Duncan’s multiple range tests.
