Heritability of quantitative orbital traits.

Human biology, 1990
We conducted a study of 63 couples and their 242 normal children from northeastern Brazil (no facial malformations or deformities) to evaluate the heritability of 4 quantitative traits of the orbital region adjusted by covariance for sex, age, (age)2, sex x age, and sex x (age)2.

Heritability and number of quantitative trait loci of neurocognitive functions in families with schizophrenia

American Journal of Medical Genetics, 2002
AbstractDespite evidence for several chromosomal loci linked to schizophrenia, no susceptibility genes have been identified for the disorder. Using quantitative measures of phenotypic affection in place of clinical diagnostic categories or dichotomous classification of the affection status may be more effective in searching for susceptibility genes ...

Quantitative genetics of cranial nonmetric traits in randombred mice: Heritability and etiology

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1986
AbstractCheverud and Buikstra (1981) demonstrated a tendency for nonmetric traits representing the number of foramina to have lower heritabilities than those representing hyperstotic or hypostotic traits in a sample of rhesus macaques. Based on this observation, Cheverud and Buikstra hypothesize that differences in the heritability of the two sets of ...

Heritability of some quantitative traits in winter wheat

1998
Broad and narrow sense heritability estimates were otained for 11 traits in 15 winter wheat combinations of crossing (Triticum aestivum L.) In seven combinations of crossing a high mean value was found for a large number of traits and moderately high to high broad and/or narrow sense heritability estimates.

Quantitative genetics of skeletal nonmetric traits in the rhesus macaques on Cayo Santiago. I. Single trait heritabilities

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1981
AbstractThe use of skeletal nonmetric traits in studies of biological relationships often involves the assumption that variation in these traits is genetic. Studies of nonmetric traits in human groups and in inbred strains of mice and rabbits have indicated a genetic component to nonmetric trait variation.
