Comparison of SNV markers with CN states of KIV-2. Samples from ARIC and SOL cohorts were genotyped for nine SNVs which have been reported as associated with different Lp(a) levels or copy number states. KIV-2 copy number was compared between groups of samples homozygous for the major (more common) or minor (less common) alleles of these SNVs, to test for association between SNV status and KIV-2 copy number. p-values were obtained by Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests and corrected for multiple testing by the Bonferroni method. Points colored by ancestry population of the sample
