  ABSTRACT: Genome-wide variance quantitative trait loci (vQTL) analysis complements genome-wide association study (GWAS) and has the potential to identify novel variants associated with the trait, explain additional trait variance and lead to the identification of factors that modulate the genetic effects. I conducted genome-wide analysis of the UK Biobank data and identified 27 vQTLs associated with systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and pulse pressure (PP). The top single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are enriched for expression QTLs (eQTLs) or splicing QTLs (sQTLs) annotated by GTEx, suggesting their regulatory roles in mediating the associations with blood pressure (BP). Of the 27 vQTLs, 14 are known BP-associated QTLs discovered by GWASs. The heteroscedasti
