  1. PRI, Photochemical Reflectance Index; NDVI, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index; SPAD, Soil and Plant Analyzer Development. Data were obtained from three replicates. Means followed by the same letters within a column are not significantly different according to Duncan’s multiple range test (p < 0.05)
