Table 3.

Statistical results from the generalized least squares correlation between leaf traits and physiological responses (ΔAn%, ΔEt%, Δgsw%) taking phylogeny into consideration. Parameters shown are P-value, pseudo-R² (Cox and Snell), minimum (min), and maximum (max) value ranges of the averages. Dark grey values represent statistically significant relationships (α = 0.05), light grey values represent marginally significant relationships (α = 0.10).
