Erratum: Genome-wide analysis of over 106 000 individuals identifies 9 neuroticism-associated loci

Correction to: Molecular Psychiatry 21, 749–757; doi:10.1038/mp.2016.49

The GWAS of neuroticism conducted within the Queensland Institute of Medical Research (QIMR) Berghofer Medical Research Institute cohort did not include covariates of age, sex, genotyping batch and 10 principal components. Adding these covariates does not substantially change the pattern of results within the meta-analysis, but P-values for the nine reported loci have changed slightly (please see revised Figure 2, Table 2A and Table 2B). Of note is that, the P-value for the index SNP rs490647 on chromosome one is now 5.0 × 10⁻⁸ (previously 3.8 × 10⁻⁸) and the P-value for the index SNP rs62353264 on chromosome four is now 5.5 × 10⁻⁸ (previously 3.7 × 10⁻⁸).
