  1. xmeans that the PHU number and TCID50 difference within the group (plant extract concentrations 0.25 and 0.125 CC50) was statistically significant (P < 0.05); if groups do not share a common letter a and b it means that the TCID50 (plant extract concentration 0.25 CC50) difference between the groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05); if groups do not share a common letter c, d and e it means that the TCID50 (plant extract concentration 0.125 CC50) difference between the groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05)
