Plants were initially separated into roots, stems and
leaves. Afterwards, they were washed three times with sterile
water and stored in paper bags for three-day drying at 40 C in a
Binder forced convection oven with a capacity of 115 L. Next, biomass
accumulation was determined by weighing the samples
using a digital balance OHAUS Adventurer. The room conditions
were maintained with a temperature of 27–30 C and relative
humidity between 55% and 65%.
