Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Aiming to identify pleiotropic genomic loci for bone mineral density and bone size, we performed a bivariate GWAS in five discovery samples and replicated in two large-scale samples. We identified 2 novel loci at 2q37.1 and 6q26. Our findings provide insight into common genetic architecture underlying both traits.
