  1. The values show the significance (p-values) of region in four models: 1. differences in the traits (first column, Basal Model); 2. adjusting for kinship (second column, Family Model); 3. adjusting for kinship and genetic structure (third column, Structure Model); 4. adjusting for kinship and environmental covariates (fourth column, Environment Model); 5. adjusting for kinship and genetic and environmental covariates (fifth column, Structure and Environment Model). An asterisk marks the estimates that are significantly different from zero. All models adjusted for sex, age and clinic
