In the present study, we aimed to report the individual sex-different genetic markers across autosomes in European- and African-origin populations. A total of 8,400 females and 8,081 males in 19 independent cohorts were genotyped across genomes using Illumina or Affymetrix arrays. The allele frequencies were compared between females and males in 9 non-clean cohorts (with some human disease traits) using genome-wide logistic regression and then the nominally significant associations were replicated across 10 clean cohorts (without disease traits). Meta-analysis was performed to derive the combined p values across all cohorts. We found 13 markers that were genome-wide significant (p≤5×10 -8 ) between females and males in the meta-analysis of all cohorts of European descent, including rs7740449 at SYNE1 , rs7531151 at PLD5 , rs697455 at PPP1R12B , rs6745746 at LOC100128413 , rs17000079 at PARM1 , rs11948070 at PDE4D , rs7801825 at INSIG1 , rs9551642 at MTUS2 , rs2932174 at TPTE2 , rs1961597 at SALL3 , rs4117529 at METTL4 , rs6021473 at SALL4 and rs6092466 at RAE1 , and one marker, i.e., rs10145208 at PCNX , that was genome-wide significant in the meta-analysis of all cohorts of African descent. The most robust finding was rs7740449 at SYNE1 , next to ESR1 . We conclude that there are many sex-different markers on autosomes. These markers may be informative in differentiating females and males.
