In the literature

The results were a spotty mix of positives and negatives: plants that had been trained on lighted patches sent a significantly greater biomass of ramets to the lighted patches ( p < 0.05) as predicted, but not a greater number of ramets; and then the opposite relationship between number and biomass inexplicably occurred for ramets that had been trained in the shade (except that the p values here were not quite significant—between 0.05 and 0.1).

Although not quite significant, there was a notable reduction in the number of action potentials evoked by Aδ- and C-fiber neurons in the vinblastine-treated group compared to neuritis (Aδ-fiber neurons: F (3, 37) = 3.17, p < 0.05; C-fiber neurons: F (3, 37) = 2.97, p < 0.05, one-way ANOVA; p = 0.06 and 0.07, respectively, Bonferroni’s post hoc tests).
In both cultivars at ambient temperature and ‘Titania’ at elevated temperatures, concentrations of raffinose were highly correlated with stem cold hardiness ( r = −0.84* in ‘Titania’ at ambient temperature, r = −0.89* in ‘Titania’ at elevated temperature and r = −0.80* in ‘Narve Viking’ at ambient temperature), whereas in ‘Narve Viking’ at elevated temperature the correlation was not quite significant ( r = −0.71).
