Abstract excerpt
Human height is a complex trait under the control of both genetic and environment factors. In order to identify genomic regions underlying the variation of stature, we performed a whole-genome linkage analysis on a sample of 53 human pedigrees containing 1,249 sib pairs, 1,098 grandparent-grandch...
