Heritability of face shape in twins: a preliminary study using 3D stereophotogrammetry and geometric morphometrics
Introduction: Previous research suggests that aspects of facial surface morphology are heritable. Traditionally, heritability studies have used a limited set of linear distances to quantify facial morphology and often employ statistical methods poorly designed to deal with biological shape. In thi...
