Estimating the heritability of psychological measures in the Human Connectome Project dataset.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The Human Connectome Project (HCP) is a large structural and functional MRI dataset with a rich array of behavioral and genotypic measures, as well as a biologically verified family structure. This makes it a valuable resource for investigating questions

The heritability of attractiveness [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2007
SummarySexual selection is responsible for the evolution of numerous conspicuous and extravagant displays observed in nature — from cricket choruses to peacock's tails. A key assumption of many models of sexual selection is that attractive males father attractive sons1.

The heritability of IQ [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1997
IQ heritability, the portion of a population's IQ variability attributable to the effects of genes, has been investigated for nearly a century, yet it remains controversial. Covariance between relatives may be due not only to genes, but also to shared environments, and most previous models have assumed different degrees of similarity induced by ...

Assumptions and properties of limiting pathway models for analysis of epistasis in complex traits.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
For most complex traits, results from genome-wide association studies show that the proportion of the phenotypic variance attributable to the additive effects of individual SNPs, that is, the heritability explained by the SNPs, is substantially less than

“… wise, amazed, temp’rate, and furious, Loyal and neutral, in a moment”: first heritability analysis of affective temperaments reports remarkably high SNP-based heritability

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2023
Introduction Depression shows a moderate heritability of 37-42%, which can be up to 75% in severely depressed samples 75%. At the same time SNP-based heritability of depression in GWAS-s is around 8-9%.

Is Cladogenesis Heritable? [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2002
The heritability of speciation rates and extinction risks is a crucial parameter in models of macroevolution, but little direct evidence has been available to assess the occurrence, strength, or generality of this heritability. We tested for heritability using correlations between ancestral and descendent branch lengths in phylogenetic trees, an ...

Heritability of Growth Traits of Simmental Cattle in Balai Pembibitan Ternak Unggul-Hijauan Pakan Ternak (BPTU-HPT), Padang Mengatas, West Sumatra, Indonesia

open access: yesJurnal Peternakan Indonesia, 2017
This study is proposed to determine the heritability of growth traits of Simmental cattle in BPTU-HPT Padang Mengatas, West Sumatra. Data were collected by observations and measurements of the cattle in the field, completed by the secondary data from ...

Quantifying missing heritability at known GWAS loci.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
Recent work has shown that much of the missing heritability of complex traits can be resolved by estimates of heritability explained by all genotyped SNPs.

Genetics of callous-unemotional behavior in children.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Callous-unemotional behavior (CU) is currently under consideration as a subtyping index for conduct disorder diagnosis. Twin studies routinely estimate the heritability of CU as greater than 50%. It is now possible to estimate genetic influence using DNA
