a Pooling by gene tests average genic FST, while in pooling independently each SNP has been assigned the replicability from the association it belongs to

b Variable indicates which parameter (either average or variance in FST) has been tested versus ϕ

c Conservative set contains those associations that have a replicability of ≥50% in at least one continent
