Means, in each column, followed by at least one letter in common are not significantly different at the 5% probability level. GER: germination, PLH: plant height, TIL: tillering, ZNC: concentrations of zinc, MNG: magnesium in seeds, PRC: protein content, HEC: hectoliter weight, TKW: 1000-seed weight, and YLD: yield.
