↵y Each value is the mean of nine observations except for control (treated with water and wrapped with parafilm (n = 48) and control (nonwrapped, exposed to the environment) (n = 15).
↵z Letters denote significant differences determined with single degree-of-freedom orthogonal comparisons (P < 0.05).
