analyses with hematological traits in the subset of our target imputation cohorts where the variants were well imputed (R2 > 0.8), we observed none of the p-values exceeded genome-wide significance threshold. This explains why these variants were not detectable at a genome-wide significant level using previously available imputation reference panels, with obvious implications for other complex trait association studies in ancestrally diverse study populations.
