While the LDSC- rg, global estimate for BMI is close to one, many loci have rg, locals that strongly and significantly diverge from one (e.g., locus 1727). In contrast, the testosterone LDSC- rg, global estimate is close to zero, while some loci are strongly negative and others positive (e.g., locus 963 and 2020). Similar plots for all other traits can be found in our Zenodo repository (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15213372). A Bonferroni-corrected significance threshold of p < 0.05/11259 = 4.44e-06 was used for rg, locals.
