Figure 2: Comparison of the leaf traits between Pinus
sylvestris and Viscum album ssp. austriacum in the
control and irrigation treatments (n = 3 trees per treatment). (a) Leaf
mass per unit leaf area (LMA) of mistletoe leaves and pine needles, (b)
leaf water content of mistletoe leaves and pine needles, (c) single leaf
area of mistletoe leaves and pine needles. Different letters indicate
significant differences (P<0.05) for each tissue between dry
controls and irrigated trees.
