Fig. 3.1: Regression lines of siliques, biomass and seed numbers in terms of the percentage of<br />

non-clipped plants per pot (CP, dots and red line; NC, circles and dotted blue line)<br />

Fig. 3.1: Les régressions linéaires <strong>de</strong> siliques, biomasse et semences d’après le pourcentage <strong>de</strong><br />

NC chaque pot (CP, points et ligne rouge ; NC, cercle et ligne bleu)<br />

Significant l inear r egression ( Y=6.14+0.32X) w as obs erved f or bi omass ( F=14.11,<br />

P=0.0015) only, when the data of all eight plants per pot were summed. Total biomass per pot<br />

increased as the percentage of NC among pots increased.<br />

Different proportions of clipped leaves<br />

The ANOVA showed that clipping leaves, on average, had a s ignificant effect on t he three<br />

measures. NC produced more siliques, higher biomass and more seeds (Table 3.3) than CP.<br />

No d ifference o ccurred among clipping tr eatments f or a ll p lants. A s ignificant in teraction<br />

between treatments and clipping was observed for biomass only.<br />
