The main effects of measured factors (MBCD, fungal elicitor type, concentration level and adding time of fungal elicitors) and their interactions (reciprocal and trilateral effects) except MBCD × concentration level, MBCD × fungal elicitor-adding time, MBCD × fungal elicitor type × concentration level, and MBCD × concentration level × fungal elicitor-adding time on total yield of paclitaxel were highly significant (p < 0.01) (Table S1 ).
