Genetic and environmental contributions to variation in baboon cranial morphology.
The development, function, and integration of morphological characteristics are all hypothesized to influence the utility of traits for phylogenetic reconstruction by affecting the way in which morphological characteristics evolve. We use a baboon model to test the hypotheses about phenotypic and quantitative genetic variation of traits in the cranium that bear on a phenotype's propensity to ev...
متن کاملGenetic variation in baboon craniofacial sexual dimorphism.
Sexual dimorphism is a widespread phenomenon and contributes greatly to intraspecies variation. Despite a long history of active research, the genetic basis of dimorphism for complex traits remains unknown. Understanding the sex-specific differences in genetic architecture for cranial traits in a highly dimorphic species could identify possible mechanisms through which selection acts to produce...

15 صفحه اولCorrection: Genetic and Environmental Contributions to Facial Morphological Variation: A 3D Population-Based Twin Study
INTRODUCTION Facial phenotype is influenced by genes and environment; however, little is known about their relative contributions to normal facial morphology. The aim of this study was to assess the relative genetic and environmental contributions to facial morphological variation using a three-dimensional (3D) population-based approach and the classical twin study design. MATERIALS AND METHO...
متن کاملGenetic and environmental contributions to depression in Sri Lanka
BACKGROUND Susceptibility to depression results from genetic and non-familially shared environmental influences in high-income, Western countries. Environments may play a different role for populations in different contexts. AIMS To examine heritability of depression in the first large, population-based twin study in a low-income country. METHOD Lifetime depression and a broader measure of ...
