Nonlinear epigenetic variance: review and simulations.

Developmental science - 1 Jan 2010

Kan Kees-Jan, Ploeger Annemie, Raijmakers Maartje E J, Dolan Conor V, van der Maas Han L J

Abstract excerpt

We present a review of empirical evidence that suggests that a substantial portion of phenotypic variance is due to nonlinear (epigenetic) processes during ontogenesis. The role of such processes as a source of phenotypic variance in human behaviour genetic studies is not fully appreciated. In ad...
