Notes: Gene-level association is shown for the left-handed versus non-left-handed phenotype, and SNP level association for all three hand preference contrasts. START and END are according to the reference genome build 37 (see methods). P values are not adjusted for multiple testing, as they are all anyway greater than 0.05. aUsing GWAS of left-handed vs non-left-handed. bUsing GWAS of right-handed vs non-right-handed. cUsing GWAS of ambidextrous vs non-ambidextrous. dThe original study made use of a microsatellite repeat polymorphism which was not genotyped or imputed in the UK Biobank dataset.
