Trait-increasing allele frequency by MPB score in UKB for 47 genome-wide significant GWAS loci identified in refs. –,. For each of the 47 loci, the trait-increasing allele frequency in the UK Biobank sample is given on the y-axis, as a deviation from its frequency for men with a MPB score of 1. The x-axis labels represent the observed MPB categories in the UK Biobank
