WeinbergLocusZoom plots show the association (left y-axis; log10-transformed p-values) with facial traits. Genotyped SNPs are depicted by stars and imputed SNPs are depicted by circles. Shading of the points represent the linkage disequilibrium (r2, based on the 1000 Genomes Project Europeans) between each SNP and the top SNP, indicated by purple shading. The blue overlay shows the recombination rate (right y-axis). Positions of genes are shown below the plot.
