at the limit of significancep = 0.052
The two cohorts differed statistically based on the genotype distributions (χ 2 = 13.918; p = 0.0009 Fisher’s exact test) and allele frequencies of TAS1R3 SNPs (χ 2 = 13.776; p = 0.0010 Fisher’s exact test), the diplotype distributions (χ 2 = 8.248; p = 0.0181; Fisher’s exact test) and haplotype frequencies of TAS2R38 SNPs (χ 2 = 8.566; p = 0.0138; Fisher’s exact test), and the genotype distributions of CD36 SNP (χ 2 = 6.875; p = 0.032; Fisher’s exact test), while the allele frequencies for this locus was at the limit of significance (χ 2 = 5.887; p = 0.052; Fisher’s exact test).
