*

Note: Starred genes represent fine-mapped loci, which were associated with BMI after the design of the Metabochip in 2009.

**

Replication of African descent signal (Gong et al. 2013).

***

For GWAS SNPs a Bonferroni correction for multiple tests reflected the number of independent GWAS signals tested (=0.05/166; Supplemental Table 3). For all other SNPs in the fine-mapped BMI regions, we performed a Bonferroni correction for the number of independent SNPs per region (r2<0.2 in ARIC African-Americans; Supplemental Table 1).

****

The range of linkage disequilibrium captures any SNP within the fine-mapped loci (Supplemental Table 3) that represents the index BMI signal or secondary signal (described in European descent populations), or race/ethnic population specific marker. ARIC and WHI samples were used to represent the linkage disequilibrium for the PAGE African and European descent samples.
