Analysis of variance for seedling height at 40 (SH1) days after sowing (DAS), number of leaves at 40 (NL1), 55 (NL2), and 70 (NL3) DAS, stem diameter at 55 (SD2) and 70 (SD3) DAS, shoot dry matter (SDM), root dry matter (RDM), total dry matter (TDM), ratio between seedling height and stem diameter at 40 (H:D1), 55 (H:D2), and 70 (H:D3) DAS, Dickson quality index (DQI), absolute growth rate between seedling height at 40 DAS and 55 DAS (AGR12), absolute growth rate between seedling height at 55 and 70 DAS (AGR23), and absolute growth rate between seedling height at 40 and 70 DAS (AGR13) of oiti seedlings. A = environment; B = cultivation bench; A × B = interaction between environment and cultivation bench; ns = not significant; * = significant at 5%; ** = significant at 1%; CV = coefficient of variation.
