Values are expressed by least squares estimates.

a, b Means with different superscripts within same trait and gene differ significantly at P < 0.05 (Tukey's HSD analysis).

*Fatty acid compositions are calculated in percentages to total of fatty acids or each denominator except MUFA/SFA.

Elongation index, (C18:0+C18:1/C16:0+C16:1+C18:0+C18:1).
