Population average curves for individuals with 27, 29 or 31 BMI risk alleles in females (A, C and E) and males (B, D and F) from the ALSPAC cohort.
Predicted population average BMI (A and B), weight (C and D) and height (E and F) trajectories from 1 – 16 years for individuals with 27 (lower quartile), 29 (median), and 31 (upper quartile) BMI risk alleles in the allelic score.

Associations between the allelic score and BMI, weight and height at each follow-up in females (A, C and E) and males (B, D and F) from the ALSPAC cohort.
Regression coefficients (95% CI) derived from the longitudinal model at each year of follow-up between 1 and 16 years.
