Figure 1.

Associations of 801 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that had P < 5 × 10⁻⁸ in prior studies of adult height in global populations of European, East Asian and African ancestry (see the ‘Methods’ section) with measured height in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL). The dashed line is the estimated regression line (no intercept) of effect estimates observed in prior studies of global populations and effect estimates observed in HCHS/SOL. The dotted line is the line of identity. SNP effects were estimated according to the height-increasing alleles in prior studies, on the Z-score of height (normalized rank).
