Accumulation of copper (a), zinc (b), manganese (c), boron (d) and iron (e), in the shoot of Mavuno grass and Zuri guineagrass under irrigated condition or water restriction in field conditions in Jaboticabal, Brazil. ns, * and ** indicate non-significant F-test, and significant F-tests at 5 and 1% probability levels, respectively. Means were tested by the Tukey test at 5% error probability. S, C, and S×C denote species, water condition, and their interaction, respectively. Uppercase letters compare means between conditions and lowercase letters compare the effect of species. bars represent the standard error of the mean, n = 4.
