Across the four target loci, multiple traits (4), the multiple models (additive and additive+heterozygote deviation), and the 2-SNP joint analyses (3 loci), our study was designed to perform fewer than 80 tests. A conservative Bonferroni correction would result in an uncorrected p-value threshold of 6.25×10−4 corresponding to an experiment-wide alpha of 0.05. The results tables report uncorrected p-values which we compared to this threshold to determine statistical significance.
