Herein, the study was extended by applying higher doses (2, 6 and 10 kGy) of gamma irradiation to dried sliced samples of the same species obtained in a commercial retailer. In addition, the storage time (ST) was prolonged up to 12 months. Besides studying the effect of each factor (GI and ST) individually, the interaction among both effects (GI ST) was also evaluated. This approach allows verifying if the effect of the first factor is ruled by a specific trend, independently of the variation of the second factor. The tabled values were presented as the mean value of each GI dose considering the results for all ST, as well as the mean value of each ST, calculated considering all the GI doses. Every time the interaction among factors was significant (p < 0.05), acting as a source of variability per se, the results could not be compared through any multiple comparison test. Alternatively, these cases
were analysed considering the estimated marginal means (EMM) plots produced in the GLM. In all cases, the equality of variances was verified through the Levene's test (data not shown).
