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