All values are means ± SDs. Generalized linear models were used to compare biomarkers of adherence and nutrient intakes across genotype groups at 6 and 24 mo. There were no significant differences in mean values of nutrient intakes and biomarkers of adherence across genotypes over the course of the 2-y intervention (P > 0.05).

Data were included for 68–159 participants per diet group at 6 mo and 36–78 participants per diet group at 2 y.

3

Data were included for 109–271 participants per diet group at 6 mo and 75–189 participants per diet group at 2 y.

4

Data were included for 121–271 participants per diet group at 6 mo and 90–239 participants per diet group at 2 y.
