strong force symmetry comparison table

Subject is a kind of has definition

gauge symmetry symmetry Symmetry principle underlying the quantum-mechanical description of the three nongravitational forces; the symmetry involves the invariance of a physical system under various shifts in the values of force charges, shifts that can change from place to place and from moment to moment.

strong force symmetry gauge symmetry Gauge symmetry underlying the strong force, associated with invariance of a physical system under shifts in the color charges of quarks.
