Fig. 3From: Carbohydrates and secondary compounds of alpine tundra shrubs in relation to experimental warmingSoluble sugars, starch, total carbohydrate concentrations (TNC) and the ratio of sugars to starch in roots of Dryas octopetala var. asiatica, Vaccinium uliginosum and Rhododendron confertissimum from the warming open-top chambers (black bars) and the controls (white bars) measured at the end of the growing season. (mg g−1 ± SD) (n = 6). The effects of treatment (T) and species (S) on all parameters were analyzed by two-way ANOVA. ** P < 0.01, *** P ≤ 0.001, ns P > 0.05Back to article page
