Values are averages ± SD (n = 3). Letters a–e denote statistical differences between assessed genotypes using Duncan’s multirange mean comparison test (α = 0.05). One-way ANOVA results revealing significant differences between genotypes are presented according to P values as follows: ns: ; 0.01 ≤ P < 0.05; 0.001 ≤ P < 0.01; and . ++ The limit of detection LOD = 3.3σ / S, and the limit of quantification LOQ = 10σ / S; σ is the standard deviation of the response, and S is the slope of the calibration curve.
