N, Number of specimens; SD, Standard deviation.

Values marked with different uppercase letters (A-C) indicate a significant difference between the different means within the same column (P < 0.05). Values marked with different lowercase letters (a-c) indicate a significant difference between the different means within the same row (P < 0.05).
