  1. Error values are reported with \(\pm 1\) standard deviation. Bold uppercase letters indicate differences in CH score between levels for either cultivar or water level across all three texture features (\(p<.05\)). Bold lowercase letters indicate differences in CH score between the three features across all treatment levels for cultivar and water level separately (\(p<.05\))
