p-values of association (−log10 scale) with breast cancer risk in <i>BRCA2</i> carriers for genotyped and imputed SNPs in the <i>NEIL2</i> gene.

<p>SNP rs1466785 is indicated with a purple arrow and the best causal imputed SNPs, rs804276 and rs804271 are indicated with a red arrow. Colors represent the pariwise r².
