Functional candidate genes: summary of genotype data and single-marker association analysis.

*The tag SNPs are listed sequentially from the 5′ end to the 3′ end of the sense strand of the respective gene, and are also designated in this order as S01, S02, …., etc for the sake of easy referencing.
†Allele 1 is the major allele, and allele 2 the minor allele.
‡In single-marker analysis, these two SNPs were significant even after correction for multiple comparisons: rs2730220 (S12) (Pa = 0.0017 and Paemp = 0.0110) in the replication sample set; and rs2071625 (S11) ((Pa = 0.0008 and Paemp = 0.0046) in the combined sample set.
§Three control samples failed to be genotyped for rs4645869 even after repeated trials.
