  1. C: Control, Gbex1: 200 mg/L Gbex, Gbex2: 400 mg/L Gbex, TFS: 0.8 g/L TFS, TFS + Gbex1: 200 mg/L Gbex + 0.8 g/L TFS, TFS + Gbex2: 400 mg/L Gbex + 0.8 g/L TFS. ECD: epidermis cell damage, FCN: flattened cell nucleus, CCD: cortex cell damage, TCCW: thickening of the cortex cell wall. Damage frequency for 100 images expressed as: (−): 0–10 damage, (+): 10–25 damage, (++): 25–50 damage, (+++): 50–75 damage, (++++): 75–100 damage.
