Regions showing significant linkage (the HLA region only) and putative linkage (nominal p<0.01. Regions in the table are defined as the Megabase (Mb) interval showing a nominal p<0.01. Neighbouring regions were merged if <15 Mb pairwise distance.

Max NPL – the maximum Z score across the region between the positions ‘from’ and ‘to’.

p-value – the p-value for the max NPL score.

^a = The HLA region.
