Figure 3. Results of the meta-analysis (Hartford-PR, GALA I, GALA II and HCHS/SOL) on the chromosome 17 region.
The relative location of genes and the direction of transcription are shown in the lower portion of the figure, and the chromosomal position is shown on the x axis. The light blue line show the recombination rate across the region (right y axis), and the left y axis shows the significance of the associations. The purple diamond shows the P-value for rs907092 that is the most significant SNP in the meta-analysis (Hartford-PR, GALA I, GALA II and HCHS/SOL). The circles show the P-values for all other SNPs and are color coded according to the level of LD with rs907092 in the 1000 Genome Project Admixed American (AMR) population.
