Text

previously described as a two-dimensional phenotype characterized by (1) CPD and (2) early morning smoking(32). The association between early morning smoking and rs1451240 is given in supplemental Table 2. These results suggest that studies using CPD as a phenotype may be missing this important component of nicotine dependence. Furthermore, this discrepancy appears to be of particular relevance in populations of African descent.
