Different writings of superscript between groups mean the significant difference (p < 0.05) between genotypes within the group.
Superscript a, b, c follow the order of lower to higher score of variables (a < b < c).
*
= Statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) from the variable results of genotype of normal adults.
