Blood samples were collected from participants in Costa Rica and sent to the laboratory at UC Irvine. Genomic DNA was purified from venous blood by using the salting-out method. DNA samples were quantified using the SpectraMax Plus spectrophotometer (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA), standardized for concentration, and arrayed into 96-deep-well plates.
