Recent progress in the study of the genetics of height.

Human genetics - 1 May 2011

Lettre Guillaume

Abstract excerpt

Adult height is a classic polygenic trait of high narrow-sense heritability (h (2) = 0.8). In the late nineteenth to early twentieth century, variation in adult height was used as a model to set the foundation of the fields of statistics and quantitative genetics. More recently, with our increasi...
