Dynamics in total nonstructural carbohydrates (TNSC) and soluble sugar (SS) concentrations. The plot shows that the concentrations of TNSC and SS at the beginning of the experiments (initial, 0-day, black bar), first sampling (10-day, red bar), and second sampling (20-day, green bar) and at the end of the experiments (third sampling, 30-day, yellow bar) water status treatments in 2015 (a, c) and 2016 (b, d) on the whole seedling level. The treatments are ED: extreme drought, MD: 30% of the field capacity (FC), CG: 70% of the field capacity, FC: field capacity and WL: permanently waterlogged. Values are the back-transformed averages and the error bars represent 95% confidence intervals for the total NSC and soluble sugars. Note that the upper-case letter refers to the significant differences among treatments and the lower-case letter refers to the significant differences within-subject
