2.13. Statistical analyses
The statistical analyses were performed using a one-way analysis
of variance (ANOVA). Duncan’s and NIR Fisher’s tests were
applied to assess significant differences at p < 0.05 between samples.
The calculations were done using STATISTICA 12.0 software
(StatSoft Inc., Tulsa, OK, USA). The coefficient of determination
(R2) and the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) were used to assess
the fit of models.
