Spatially Dense 3D Facial Heritability and Modules of Co-heritability in a Father-Offspring Design

Spatially Dense 3D Facial Heritability and Modules of Co-heritability in a Father-Offspring Design

Introduction: The human face is a complex trait displaying a strong genetic component as illustrated by various studies on facial heritability. Most of these start from sparse descriptions of facial shape using a limited set of landmarks. Subsequently, facial features are preselected as univariate m...
