Box-and-whisker plot for the size distribution of fungal pellets at varying agitation rates: 100 rpm (filled circle), 125 rpm (filled triangle) and 150 rpm (filled square) (with an orbital shaking radius of 9 mm and a flask diameter of 85 mm) at the culture pH 3. Values in the graph represent mean values (diameter in mm) with; a First quartile 6.15, median 6.54, third quartile 7.01, whiskers 5.24 (lower)–7.88 (upper) and 95 % confidence interval for the median in range: 6.21–6.83 for agitation 100 rpm; b first quartile 3.85, median 4.22, third quartile 4.45, whiskers 3.14 (lower); 4.86 (upper) and 95 % confidence interval for the median in range: 3.14–4.86 for agitation 125 rpm; c first quartile 1.69, median 1.92, third quartile 2.24, whiskers 1.21 (lower); 2.84 (upper) and 95 % confidence interval for the median in range: 1.81–2.14 for agitation 150 rpm
