a

Regions within the MTL and PFC where individuals homozygous for the met allele showed increased ESA and RSA compared with individual homogygous for the val allele.

b

Regions within the MTL and PFC where individuals homozygous for the val allele showed increased ESA and RSA compared with individual homogygous for the met allele. Results include all significant group differences within the MTL and PFC significant at P < 0.05, k > 10 voxels masked with the effects of interest at P < 0.05, k > 10 voxels (conjoint probability P < 0.0025). H: hemisphere; BA: Brodmann's area.
