Figure 2. Results of genome scan at 11q24.1 locus containing the BLID and LOC399959 genes.

(A) Adjusted P-values on −log₁₀ scale for SNPs examined for their association by the trend χ² test. (B) Structures, orientations and locations of the BLID and LOC399959 genes on NCBI Reference Sequence Build 36.1, together with pair-wise LD estimates of the SNP markers located within a 200-kb region encompassing the rs577948 marker (red box). Three additional SNP markers (rs11218544, rs11218553, and rs10892819), that showed adjusted P-value<10⁻² in the first stage, are also indicated.
