The UK Biobank data show support (P < 0.01) for 119 of 122 previously reported BP loci at the time of analysis (159 of 163 SNVs) for one or more BP traits (Supplementary Fig. 2 a-c; Supplementary Table 13). We do not show support for one SNV (rs11066280, RPL6-ALDH1) identified from a GWAS of East Asian ancestry18, which may indicate ancestry-specific effects. We compare the MAF and effect sizes in UK Biobank with published results of previously reported variants (Supplementary Fig. 6), indicating consistency of results between the two sources of data.
