Notes

rs9834312 is a SNP in the filamin B, beta (actin binding protein 278) FLNB gene. Based on a study of 1,000+ Caucasians and 2,000+ Chinese, rs9834312 was associated with height in both Caucasian populations (p=0.008) and Chinese populations (p=0.017) 23andMe blog *rs1867138(T;T) or rs1867137(G;G) were approximately one inch taller than rs1867138(C;C) *rs9834312(G;G) or rs939882(G;G) increased height
