  1. Chr, chromosome; CanCOLD, Canadian Cohort Obstructive Lung Disease; HGVS, human genome variation society; MAF, minor allele frequency; SLSJ cohort, Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean asthma familial cohort
  2. aSNPs identified using data from dbSNP151
  3. bHGVS names and distance from genes’ transcription start sites calculated from human genome version 19 (hg19, GRCh37). †MAF for the SLSJ cohort and the 1000 Genomes project available from UCSC Genome Browser (https://genome.ucsc.edu)
  4. cR square between the most significant genetic variant and the three other ones
