  ABSTRACT: Summary Over the past 30 years, obesity prevalence has markedly increased globally, including among children. Although genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified over 1,000 genetic loci associated with obesity-related traits in adults, the genetic architecture of childhood obesity is less well characterized. Moreover, most childhood obesity GWASs have been restricted to severely obese children, in relatively small sample sizes, and in primarily European-ancestry populations. To identify genetic loci associated with early-childhood body mass index (BMI), we performed GWAS of BMI Z scores in eight ancestrally diverse cohorts: ZOE 2.0 cohort, the Santiago Longitudinal Study (SLS), the Vanderbilt University BioVU biobank, the Geisinger MyCode Health Initiative biobank, S
